Catalogue of the Library of Robert Hoe of New York : Part 1, A to K

Robert Hoe, Compiler

Abstract

The library is enriched by trophies of all the great sales of Mr. Hoe's half a century of collecting. Perhaps no such array of books of important provenance and high association interest was ever before assembled. Books with the arms of Kings and Queens; beautiful manuscripts ante-dating printing, and the earliest examples of printed books; books from Grolier's library in finest condition; autographs, manuscripts, and letters; annotated books- the imagination kindles at these intimate reminders of the great and illustrious names of many periods and nations.
