| Summary |
"Highly personal and idiosyncratically historical, this book is a memoirist's guide to more than fifty paper objects, including report cards, maps, menus, spreadsheets, broadsides, library cards, prescriptions, tickets, books, dictionaries, file folder, and legal tender--and an invitation to readers whose stories might be a single box or shelf away"-- Provided by publisher |
