William Collins Sons & Co 1984. 128 sid. Absolut nyskick! Foreword by Harold Macmillan.
All seven deadly sins plus a few more seem to be generously represented in the book world, and stories of tyrannical publishers, slothful editors and vengeful authors fill the pages of this irreverent and entertaining book. The reader will not only end up happier, possibly chastened and certainly wiser about a world known for its eccentrics and eccentricities; he will even have done some good, for this catalogue of human foibles is published in aid of "Bookrest, the book trade´s charity."
