I’m a bibliophile — completely. I’m a lover of books. I have been from a very small child. I’m also a YUGH (Donald Trumps way of saying HUGE — he he he) fan of Little Free Libraries...that’s another story for another article. On to books and how to tell a first edition book.
It’s actually easier if I share links from other articles. It’s not as easy as one might think to find and identify first edition books. For those who collect these, it’s a treasure hunt and estate sales are a wonderful way to find your book treasures — either first edition or just a great book to add to your collection.
