Black & White, 3 of 5

This is the third of my five images as per Hilary's Facebook photo challenge. This is a collection of old books that sits atop a tall barrister bookcase in our living room. I used to spend my Saturdays in used bookshops in search of old editions. I've found some good books this way, but I can't seem to find any good sellers here.

My favorite in this pile? The Lady of the Lake, by Sir Walter Scott. This particular edition was published in 1923. It's the wee book on the very top of the stack. There's nothing like cracked leather and musty paper to make me want to read whatever's printed inside!
