Gratuitous picture of my morning walk, which took me in the opposite direction of where @squirrelbrain went.

Thanks for the socks, @scripturient - perfect for keeping warm in the Reading Rooms.

Every year at #GladstonesLibrary I come across at least one title that amuses me (or makes me cringe - I still haven't gotten over "Journeys Among the Gentle Japs")
This year I present to you: CHEAP TRACTS
Entertaining, moral and religious, (not to mention cheap) repository tracts - for the use of W. E. Gladstone's servants in 1833.
Part of the #Gladstonerds #GladstonesLibrary #ReadingRetreat #BookHaul (quite literally - carried home 13 books)
Thank you especially to @scripturient @Oryx @squirrelbrain @Caroline2 @TrishB 😘😘😘 - also thanks to @RaeLovesToRead for foregoing her prior claim on The Binding and letting me schlepp it home instead.
Miss this view already.
I'm home. Might have a reading party with the offspring now.

The first line of the 1930s part of the tagged book is:
Ken Kourian's eyes, pale green like thirsty grass, bent to the coffee-stained page in front of him.
