It's a book of my grandfather. Who is not there anymore. He had a printing companey and a lot of interest in books. I my self I'm not a real lover of books I prefer tv. Though this book had alway's somthing special. It kinda looks like a magic book. The language is old dutch and verry nice quotes and poverbs. The book is old and not in a good condition.
