Richard Booth, entrepreneur, scholar, bon viveur and self-proclaimed king plots the highs and lows of a remarkable career in bookselling and an extraordinary life outside it. He recalls a lifetime searching the world for books while battling at home against bureaucracy and business enemies. This is also the story of Hay-on-Wye, a sleepy border town that became the second-hand book capital of the world and declared itself an independent Kingdom

My Kingdom of Books is moving, candid, anarchic and often hilarious: a well of joy and liberation in today's conformist world

Signed first edition. Price includes postage and packing.
