First published in 1836, this lively twovolume autobiography of Thomas Frognall Dibdin (17761847) reveals the background and mindset of this fascinating character. Bestknown for helping to stimulate interest in bibliography and for his enthusiasm in promoting book collecting among the aristocracy, the English bibliographer adopts a conversational and anecdotal tone as he shares the details of his life and work with the reader. Volume 2 begins with Dibdin's experiences at Althorp, describing how the rich library there was thrown open to him. He then continues his detailed discussion of his publications, and focuses on his life in London, before the final chapter turns to private libraries and their importance in his life. Drawing upon letters and literature throughout, Dibdin recounts many entertaining tales, including an unfortunate encounter with a 'savagehearted critic' at a dinner party, and introduces the influential characters he meets along the way.
