‎Summary Presented on the occasion of Richard A. Linenthal's seventieth birthday in June 2026, this book is a tribute to his learning, his passion, his friendship, and his capacity to enthuse and inspire others. In a 50-year career as an antiquarian bookseller, first with Bernard Quaritch Ltd., then latterly under his own name, Richard has found a home for many of the most important books to have passed through the trade. Equally happy working with institutions and private collectors, Richard's enthusiasm and friendship have been central to building collections around the world. His influence and impact can be seen in libraries across the UK and the US, but also in Japan, where he was central to the development of both academic and private libraries. Among the contributors are collectors, friends, family, colleagues, librarians, curators, and scholars and the contributions are as varied as Richard's own interests, encompassing book history, the book trade, antiquities, manuscript studies, provenance research and library history. An important and exciting collection of 45 essays which contribute much to our understanding of the collecting of the written and printed word. TABLE OF CONTENTS For Richard A.
