Michael Visontay's book launch of Noble Fragments - In conversation with Geraldine Doogue

One hundred years ago, Gabriel Wells, a New York bookseller, committed a crime against history. He broke up the world’s greatest book, the Gutenberg Bible, and sold it off in individual pages. This is the story of Sydney-based journalist and editor Michael Visontay's hunt for those fragments and his family’s debt to an act of literary vandalism.

Part detective story and part memoir, Noble Fragments is an expedition into the arcane world of book collectors and their eccentric passions, and a journey of discovery about how Wells’s gamble set off a chain of events that changed a family’s destiny.

Join The Jewish Independent's Commissioning Editor, Michael Visontay in conversation with ABC journalist Geraldine Doogue, to share the story of Noble Fragments and raise a glass to celebrate his latest achievement.
