Críticas

The introduction to this important set of reference books is invaluable for the novice collector, for those who are trying to broaden their understanding of the business of antiquarian books, for people who are searching for or comparing prices of a particular book, or for those who unexpectedly found a box of old books at a neighborhood garage or estate sale or in the attic of a grandparent's home. This is a resource that should be availalble to the general public, and because of the cost, it might be used by professional dealers of antiquarian books as well. --American Reference Books Annual, 2012
