Jonathan A. Hill Bookseller has published his Catalogue 218, also described on the cover as "45 Years," celebrating his number of years in the book world. Assuredly, the importance of the material he features has grown with the years. This looks like a book not a catalogue, a hard-bound octavo an inch thick. You will learn much about history simply by reading the descriptions of the books being offered. It is filled with titles that range from significant to extremely important. This is a collection of major works, intended for those who collect at the highest level.
