“I’ve been to literary festivals all over the world but none of them had the intimacy and the enthusiasm of Althorp.”
Anthony Horowitz
“Lord! when you sell a man a book you don't sell just twelve ounces of paper and ink and glue - you sell him a whole new life. Love and friendship and humour and ships at sea by night - there's all heaven and earth in a book, a real book.”
Christopher Morley
