#TBRtemptation post 3! Somehow the title's been heavily typoed here on @Litsy , lol. As with all major Smithsonian books, this is a heavily illustrated work. You'll learn a general history of the book from Gilgamesh to the new millennium. And you'll see lush images of gorgeous libraries, collections, & books along the way. The focus for the Smithsonian is on the role books played in societies. #blameLitsy #blameMrBook 😎
