ISBN10: 0060082879, ISBN13: 9780060082871, [publisher: HarperCollins, NY] Hardcover First Edition (USA) 1st printing. No markings, Fine in Fine dust jacket. Hardcover, 444pp, index, no illus. In vivid detail, Basbanes examines the many materials that have been used over the centuries to record information -- among them clay tablets, papyrus scrolls, slabs of stone, palm leaves, animal skins, and hammered sheets of gold and copper. Also discussed are the various debates that continue to rage about preservation, which may mean saving and storing books on paper indefinitely, or as electronic data, which are by nature ephemeral.

ISBN10: 0060082879, ISBN13: 9780060082871, [publisher: Harper] Hardcover 8vo (23.5 cm), XX, 444 pp. Publisher's cloth backed boards and dust jacket. From the publisher's description: "In A Splendor of Letters, Nicholas A. Basbanes continues the lively, richly anecdotal exploration of book people, places, and culture he began in 1995 with "A Gentle Madness" (a finalist that year for the National Book Critics Circle Award) and expanded in 2001 with Patience & Fortitude, a companion work that prompted the two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning historian and biographer David McCullough to proclaim him "the leading authority of books about books." In this beautifully packaged edition, Basbanes brings to a close his wonderful trilogy on the remarkable world of books and bibliophiles."
