An old book (zaibatsu.circumlunar.space), 03/24/2020
------------------------------------------------------------
I thought  I wrote  about it,  but maybe I  did not.  A while  back, I
ordered a  somewhat rare  book from  a shop in  the UK.  Yesterday, it
finally arrived.

The book was "Michael O'Halloran" by Gene Stratton-Porter. I've talked
about it before, I'm sure. It's one of my favorite books.

The copy I got was printed in  1915. It has a beautiful color plate in
the front matter. There is no imprint indicating which printing it was
from (if there  were multiple printings of this version),  and I'm not
expert  enough  to tell  you  from  any  other  indicators. It  is  in
reasonably good condition.

I have the book digitally, and have had it for years. I've never owned
a physical copy, but have always wanted to have one.

To me, books  are beautiful, and good books  are especially beautiful.
That's why I'm sharing.

If you  haven't read it, get  it digitally[1], or even  just listen to
it[2].  It's  a  simple  story,  from  a  simple  time.  It  has  some
interesting plot and literary devices, and is well worth your time and
energy.
