LATE BOOKING My First Twenty Five Years in the Secondhand Book Trade. Paul Minet. Frantic Press, Frant. 1989 First edition 200pp Illustrated Hardback. This copy is in MINT condition in a MINT unclipped dustwrapper. Laid in is a flyer for this book. In this candid and amusing autobiography we learn how the author struggled for twenty five years with very varied success to re-create the browsing bookshops he loved as a boy. Whether 'Running' books from shop to shop in the West Country, dozing behind market bookstalls, up to his armpits in old books in an unlit cinemain Ilfracombe or running one of the largest bookshops in London, the author was a perennial optimist in his chosen field.
