Excerpt from A Library for Five Pounds

In the first place, I propose to name books which shall be enjoyable, with a certain proportion of reference books. Reading must be made a pleasure if it is to be persevered in. There is no doubt that, comparatively speaking, very few people read books. In fact, many regard books as a hindrance to the enjoyment of life.
