Richard Adams’s Library Up for Auction

Richard Adams died at the end of 2016. Now his personal library is being prepared for auction.

The auctioneer called his collection “a proper library – not just one to be looked at … There wasn’t a special place for the more valuable books – they weren’t under lock and key, they were there to be enjoyed. I was amazed when I first walked in.”
