W. Somerset Maugham's Library at Harry Ransom Center: 143 Books

Somerset Maugham's library at Harry Ransom Center

As promised, in this post I will continue my last post of W. Somerset Maugham's personal library housed in Harry Ransom Center, University of Texas at Austin. It is better late than never.

And as I mentioned in the last post, this search was conducted in May 2017. Although I doubt the collection has changed much, I would like to point out that I have not revisited it and am not likely to do it in the near future to repeat the search.

Lastly, before we dive into the exciting long list of books, I would like to thank those who have written to let me know that they enjoy Maugham's works and my blog. Your comments mean a lot to me.
