This is fascinating! How wonderful for your family, your grandchildren, that you love books so much. I'm afraid that, soon, humans won't even be able to read. I love books too, but have nothing like what you have. I rescued a box of old books that had been left in a family home, my sister wanted to sell them. I've been reading them instead. When reading older literature, I can better see how much we have changed, culturally. Seems to me we've been dumbed down.

Your photos are lovely. I can smell the old books from the USA.
