I papered an entire bathroom with old covers from "The Chronicle of  
the Horse". I loved it. Half of what we moved was books.  :  )  Truth  
is, half our tables are made out of stacks of books. : )

At Monticello, Thomas Jefferson's bed was built into the wall between  
two rooms....his headboard and footboard were bookshelves the width of  
the bed.
