Bernard Alfred Quaritch (1870 – 27 August 1913) was the son of antiquarian book dealer Bernard Quaritch, and continued his father's business in London until his own death in Brighton on 27 August 1913.[1]
According to journalist and book collector Bernard Falk (1882-1960),
Part of his achievement was to build up the libraries of such U.S.A. Multi-millionaires as J. Pierpont Morgan, H.C. Folger, He.E. Huntington, Robert Hoe and J.E. Widener, all of whom had the greatest faith in his judgment, advice and business probity.[2]
The business survives to this day.[3]
