Along the way, they introduce us to the antiquarians and philanthropists who shaped the world's great collections, trace the rise and fall of fashions and tastes, and reveal the high crimes and misdemeanours committed in pursuit of rare and valuable manuscripts.

Indulge in the ultimate literary experience. We've refined the way you discover and access The Library: A Fragile History by Andrew Pettegree. Crafted for the discerning reader.
