  • Hello, I’m Lori Hartbarger; an artist, musician, amateur historian, and booklover. The Eclectic Book Gatherer is devoted to a miscellany of books I’ve found interesting and fascinating; from books recently read to remembered titles from the past, and these are usually vintage or older, as I prefer old books for many reasons.
