The author presents book-collecting as a pastime and a sport here. A bestseller in its day, this 1918 work considers prices, catalogs, book-collecting at home and abroad, and first editions, as well as offering essays on some of Newton's favorite authors: James Boswell, Samuel Johnson, Charles Lamb, Anthony Trollope, and Oscar Wilde.
