| It had been such a wonderful discovery that book that Tommy
found in his attic. It told me so
much about a world I never knew existed. It’s
horrible how they didn’t maintain our history but focused so much on the
information they thought we needed to know for the future.
That discovery also pointed the way to my life’s work, collecting and
restoring old books. There were more of them around than anyone could imagine back
then. It is so gratifying to know
that I had something to do with bringing them to the people’s attention and
helping them understand the importance of preserving/holding onto this piece of
their history.
