"In 1817 appeared the most amusing and the most successful from a pecuniary point of view of his works the 'Bibliographical Decameron' on which a great sum was spent for engravings and woodcuts. The reader will find a great deal of gossip about books and printers about book collectors and sales by auction." DNB. Perhaps the most lavish of all Dibdin's works.Its publication was a financial success and doubtless marks the high-water mark of the Dibdinian bibliomania." Jackson 4.

As in the style of its production it is the most sumptuous so in the nature of its contents it may be said to be one of the most interesting books relative to ancient and modern printing" Bigmore & Wyman. "The work is written in the same dialogue manner as the Bibliomania with the same interlocutors and may be properly described as a continuation of it. It is perhaps the most lavish of all Dibdin's works" Jackson. Hart 186: "A bibliographer's classic that marks the beginning of the general recognition of bibliomania as a plaything for wealthy."
