Review:
I\'m in my first year at university clonidine catapres dosage Tiny books inspire grand passions. Neale Albert, a 75-year-old former lawyer, has been collecting them for 20 years. The reason, he says, speaking from his home in Manhattan, is practical: “What would you do,” he says, “if you loved to collect things and you lived in a two-bedroom apartment?” Yet as time went on, and his collection swelled to 3,500 volumes, Albert found it necessary to purchase a second apartment to accommodate his burgeoning library. Julian Edison was hooked by miniature books in 1960, when his wife presented him with a complete miniature set of Shakespeare on their first wedding anniversary: “I said what you would say, \'Wow! I’ve never seen anything like that.’” Four years later, the library of a chemist, Percy Spielmann, came up for auction; Edison bought all 800 books, housed in custom-made Lilliputian bookcases, and his collection now runs to 15,000 volumes.
