Benson, and also lesser-known figures such as J.M.A. Mills, Humphrey Gilkes and Charles Whitton. He offers the reader an understanding of these writers in their wider literary context, drawing out links and resonances between them. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eValentine celebrates the byways of book collecting, such as old monographs found in obscure boxes, noticing unusual details and unexpected stories.
