Found this gem in the history section of the book store over the weekend. The Madman's Library (Edward Brooke-Hitching) shares the strangest books that book sellers, book auctioneers, and librarians have come across. Books bound in human skin and books hiding poisoner's kits. The author brings up a story about a book buyer who would only by the 97th copy of limited print books. Folks filing lawsuits against the devil or god. Thought everyone here might find this interesting!
If I’m ever close enough I would love to come in person. But for now I’m so grateful for the videos, they were such a treat to watch. Almost as good as actually being there.
Man, I gotta make it to the next one- even if I don't have time to put together a story to read (all mine are slightly too long), it's still really fun to hear everyone else's.
