"The Great Book-Collectors"

On the
17th of June, 1819, the White Knights library was sold on behalf of the
owner's creditors; and the 'Boccaccio' found a safe home at Althorp,
where George, Earl Spencer, had by fortunate purchases, by zeal in the
pursuit of books, and by the aid of an accomplished librarian, formed
that matchless collection which Renouard justly described as 'the finest
private library in Europe.'
