A set of concrete plinth blocks, with open bronze books set on top of each, the books each have different patterns on covers or pages. The blocks are etched with verses from a poem by Tony Mitton. Some blocks also have embedded bronze medallions. They are based on themes taken from the royal inventory of books reputedly held in the library of the Beaulieu Palace in 1547.
