Great post Jo - couldn't agree more. I adore old books. They're so beautiful - I even love their mustiness!
Sounds like you have a real treasure there.

I haven't used an old-style Roget's in a long time, but even with an instant thesaurus sitting at my fingertips, I still usually prefer to dip into my Roget's Super Thesaurus. Big fat book that feels good to browse through. I suppose I'll always have one foot in the old world.
There is a lot to be said for the simple joy of leafing through a real book, a source of information that seems so much more solid than the offerings of the 'net', nice post Joanne. Raven
