If you enjoy visiting second-hand book fairs, or browsing in bookshops, ‘All the Fun of the Book Fair’ offers a revealing look behind the scenes.It tells how a life-long book-lover finally, after retirement, achieved his dream of becoming a second-hand book dealer by standing at fairs, and how he ended up running many of them. It describes the mistakes he made, the lessons he learned, the friends he made – and he hopes that if you have ever had ambitions to be a bookseller it will inspire you to take a similar path. After the story comes the quiz: 300 questions on many aspects of books.
