This morning my copy of The Footnote: A Curious History by Anthony Grafton fell through my letterbox. It's secondhand, as are all of my books. I buy ones marked as ‘good’ or ‘very good’, sometimes ‘ex library copy’; there’s the odd pencil mark at worst, but usually there’s just a scruffy cover saving me a few quid.
