Sometimes a hardback just can't be turned into an ebook of the same kind - well, not if you have a Kindle, anyway.
I recently bought an old but clean copy of J A Mitchell's "The Last American" (this book probably isn't what you imagine it to be) after seeing a digitised version.
It has heavy paper and delicately coloured illustrations, drop capitals to die for, little images at the end of each chapter, and an embossed and illustrated cover: but the text (good though it is) is very short indeed.
An ideal physical object for someone interested in the archaeology of fantasy and science fiction. I couldn't resist it.
