And now, a short recreation of the drama that surrounded the publication of this paradigm shifting book:

(Bennett and Elton enter their publishers office)

Publisher: Look guys its good its good but it's a bit long, no?

Bennett: You don't understand man. We can't say all we need to say in just THREE volumes. We're on the verge of a break through.

Elton: COME ON! Would you stifle the creativity of Joyce or Nabokov that way?

Publisher: Alright you can go onto the fourth, but only because America loves corn milling.

Man, would I love to have seen the epic battles that took place when the Vassar library only had one book dedicated to the unimaginably interesting history of Delaware.

The horror, the horror.

I'll be sure to do that tonight with my solar powered night vision goggles.

In the beginning...

...I like to look at books in the Library that are weird.

Really weird.

And as I will be spending a quite a few hours inside this neo-gothic giant over the next few weeks, I have decided to document the secret, hidden jewels that live within the Vassar College Library.
