Today at an antique store, I picked up a book on letter-writing, published in 1772. I'm glad I found this book, but I'm really freaking out that I have a book that's just been knocking around since before our country became independent (literally knocking around ~ the only part of the cover left is the spine). I feel a great responsibility to take care of this properly. Aside from the historical significance and rarity, I paid less than $20 for it and it's probably worth an awful lot more than that.
