World' Most Expensive Book
Last week in London a first edition of John James Audubon's, "Birds of America", sold for over $10,000,000, making it the world's most expensive book. Published in 1827, the 3 feet by 2 feet book features over 435 hand-colored illustrations of birds, drawn to size. It is considered by many to be the most important natural history book of America.
