Latest Acquisition

We've mentioned Eric Quayle before, as the biographer of R. M. Ballantyne. Quayle was a bibliophile, who possessed a huge library of first editions from all sorts of authors. Although he did not write from a Christian perspective, his biography of Ballantyne is extremely helpful, being one of our main resources. Last week I was very excited to obtain another book by Quayle, called "R. M. Ballantyne: A Bibliography of First Editions." This is an out-of-print, somewhat rare resource, which catalogs all of RMB's first editions, including detailed descriptions of the actual book's appearance, with additional notes on content and history.
Hurrah for Ballantyne!
Tutela ex Vulnero,
