Carl Rollyson Quote

Michael often spoke of his father and their book discussions. Isaac Foot would visit London nearly every fortnight, Michael recalled, and they would see each other. Michael rarely spoke of anyone else in his family. Even more than Michael, Isaac was immersed in the world of books, accumulating a huge library. Sooner or later Michael seemed always to take up the books his father had prized. Montaigne and Conrad became part of the Foot canon during his convalescence after the car accident.
