Leviathan in the Bookshop

David Baldacci Books

"When history is written as it ought to be written, it is the moderation and long patience of the masses at which men will wonder, not their ferocity." - C.L.R. James

The Blade Artist in the Bookshop

"Nearly all bookish people are snobs, and especially the more enlightened among them. They are apt to assume that if a writer has immense circulation, if he is enjoyed by plain persons, and if he can fill several theatres at once, he cannot possibly be worth reading and merits only indifference and disdain." - Arnold Bennett
