This book had some fantastic information. It covers 80 books that were remarkably influential or particularly beautiful in nature. I loved the segments on The Books of The Dead, The Book of Kells and Darwin's On the Origin of Species. There were many more too, such as Alice in Wonderland, Le Petite Prince and the Gutenberg Bible. Check it out if you love books 😉

The revolution is not a dinner party!

Gah!!!!!! 😍😍😍

So, I won the lovely @robinb ‘s #AllTheRightStuffGiveaway and this was my surprise book!!!!

Thank you so very much, my friend!! It‘s breathtakingly gorgeous and I had to force myself to put it down to make this post. You were far too generous (but I‘m thrilled to bits). 😘😘😘

I found this title in a bookstore and stood in awe. Not only the subject matter, “the worlds most beautiful and historic works,” but the cover itself. Momma wants!

What am I celebrating? It‘s been about three weeks since I‘ve seen the wood of my coffee table. Lol (cleaning isn‘t really my strong suit).

Stack of antique books. The lighting was low and Victorian in this house filled with antiques so it was hard to take good pictures. The books though! 😍📚

A gorgeous antique prayer book in the house full of antiques that my family had dinner in last night. 😍📚

Last night my family and I had dinner in this amazing house full of antiques. It's hard to see in the picture but the four objects along the front are tiny, delicate prayer books. Tiny books 😍😍😍😍

I want! What‘s not to like about an illustrated, oversized book about beautiful books? #TBRtemptation #DK

Just thought I‘d share my books and gift card I received for Christmas this year. I absolutely love reading books about books and so I am especially excited to delve into Remarkable Books, which had been on my wish list! Very happy with the vintage Sarte, Agatha Christie, and French Christmas stories, too! 📚

This book is STUNNING! Go out and get it immediately. @CatLass007 thank you again!!! #secretsantagoespostal #wintersolsticebookexchange

Presented here are 75 books and their most celebrated, rare, and seminal editions. Each has accompanying essays. From "The Art of War" to Mao's Little Red Book. #blameLitsy #blameMrBook ?
