Book heaven in Hay-on -Wye
The little Welsh village of Hay-on-Wye was the world's first book town. It all started 60 years ago when Richard Booth bought container loads of books from American libraries that were closing. Books new and secondhand, on every topic imaginable, are for sale in over 30 shops in the narrow cobbled streets in the shadow of a Norman castle. I bought Bartholomew's antique map of Wexford and Tipperary.
