Question I have a copy of the book by Thomas A'Kempis published by Henry Altemus the only date i can find is 1842 can some one tell me the value of this book or who might be interested is purchasing the book. I am wanting to find out more about this book however i don't know where to start.
Answer Hello.
Altemus published this title in more than a 100 formats. Without a picture there is little that I can tell you except that none of them have any significant value. At the earliest your book was published by Altemus in 1892. Look at the site henryaltemus.com . If you cannot find info there, email me a picture at css3@mac.com and I should be able to help you.
Regards-Cary
