I would also add to the rapidly growing list the various works of
Lawrence Clark Powell, formerly librarian at UCLA. Not a dealer,
certainly a collector, both for himself and for the institution (back in
the days of summer-long European book-hunting jaunts, full of dusty
basements full of rare pamphlets and five martini lunches)- he wrote
several books full of charming essays on bookish subjects, and his love
of books comes through in each one. "Bookman's Progress" is a volume of
selected writings and a good place to start, but almost any of his books
you could find would be nice.
