Last week I found a book on the library's system that looked like it would be a great resource. The problem was...it was in the L. Tom Perry Special Collections. So on Saturday, I made my way down there and was able to read part of the book The History of Writing, part of the collection of Victorian books. It was amazing to be able to handle a book from the mid 1800s. The cover was decorated in what seemed to be iron on top of painted paper, which was pretty beautiful. As I was reading it, I felt like I wanted to drink of the knowledge from it more deeply because it was a precious book.
