Nicholas Basbanes's A Gentle Madness focused on the obsessive lives of book collectors. Now, in Patience And Fortitude, he considers the more comprehensive concept of book culture - and the continual relevance of books in our lives. Patience And Fortitude considers the evolving form of the book over the centuries, preservation efforts, and the great national, public, and institutional libraries around the world. With emphasis on the experiences and thoughts of all kinds of dedicated book people - librarians, readers, writers, scholars, bookmakers, booksellers, bibliographers, preservationists, archivists, and collectors, this colourful narrative history is the perfect gift for book lovers.
