This morning I read a review of the book 'Confessions of a Bookseller' by Shaun Bythell. No, it's not what you think.

He owns a second hand book shop in Wigtown, which is Scotland's centre for the trade and, in the review, comes across as somewhat irascible, a Basil Fawlty type as it were.

I had a dig around and found his website and a video in which he reads an extract from his earlier book 'Diary of a Bookseller'.

It shines a light on his character quite nicely.
