For summer reading I'd highly recommend Rick Gekoski's
recent TOLKIEN'S GOWN AND OTHER STORIES OF FAMOUS
AUTHORS AND RARE BOOKS (Constable, paperback). The
[London] Sunday Telegraph reviewer said of it: " ... a
fascinating back-stage look at [Gekoski's] own rare
book trade ... memorably bizzare encounters with
literary giants".
