This is Part 2! For Part 1, check the feed!
This week on the show we’re looking at the greatest book collections history has to offer as well as the historical figures who themselves loved to read. We have for you this week; Maximilien Robespierre and what he had on his shelf, William Gladstone’s library in North Wales and finally, one of the greatest actors of the 20th century, Richard Burton and his literary obsessions.
