5.0 out of 5 stars Books & Reading, September 26, 2002
By 
James Trelease (Springfield, Massachusetts United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Books and Reading: A Book of Quotations (Dover Thrift Editions) (Paperback)
Because of my professional career, I collect quotation books about reading and literacy. And this collection by Bill Bradfield is the best I've found to date. Yes, he's got the standard oldies by folks like Emerson, Erasmus, and Shaw but he's also included up-to-date quotations from the likes of Jerry Seinfeld, Malcolm X, and Stephen King. Granted, he included me in the list but I didn't need it -- I already knew what I said. At the price, it's the best bargain in quote books for anyone in education or libraries.

Wasn't exactly what I thought, but is in excellent condition. It's small and easy to get through.
