About

Steven John James Fitzpatrick Harrison Esquire died suddenly on Tuesday, March 14, 2023. He was adored by many as a son, brother, uncle, cousin, nephew, and friend.

Steven's greatest wish was for the preservation of his prized books. He was a skilled constitutional historian, a fervent monarchist who would debate politics with "anyone who would allow him to chew his ear off", and he cherished his nation and its liberties.

Steven's family is establishing a legal registered entity to oversee the preservation of his 4000+ book collection, which includes many rare, first editions, out-of-print works and a full library of scholarly literature.

The proceeds from this campaign will go towards the setup costs of the registered entity, the initial storage and preservation of his books, and finally, the establishment of a public community library so that his collection can be accessed in perpetuity by anyone who was as passionate and dedicated to the knowledge of his country and its people as Steven was.

I'm so sorry what happened to Steven, and my condolences. Have you considered donating these books to a library as a "special collection" - which they could add to their archives. Btw, I am a former librarian.
