Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Facts About Bookworms: Their History in Literature and Work in Libraries
The interest taken in the question by scholars - literary, historical and scientific and the appreciation shown, has fully repaid the labor, with the not ungrounded hope that this pioneer work may be followed by further researches that will be for the good and the advantage of letters which have been a gift from God to man in his journey through life.
A strange truth it is, that the same material that supplies food for the spiritual intellect of man should also supply food for one of the tiniest creatures in God's creation.
