Sergio's Library
Sergios excitement for knowledge and adventure can best be reflected in his wonderfully vast book collection. Below you can view the expansive range of books Sergio collected over the years. I (Alex) thought it would be a great idea to offer these books to those who wish to help continue the positive impact Sergios life brought to all of us. All of these books are available to anyone who is interested in owning a piece of Sergios Library and any donations will be used towards your charity of choice or to one of Sergios many charitable interests. Please reach out to myself directly via contact with anything you find interest in.
