Where are the books in Bowerstone Old Quarter?

Answer 1

If you go up the hill past the markets, you will find this book at the base of the statue in the small circular park where the road curves.

After you give Samuel 10 books he will give you the quest to find this book and a trapdoor key. Set this quest as your target, and follow the golden trail up to a house in the Old Quarter to get into the trapdoor of that house's basement. Hit the flit switch that you find in the basement to eventually get this book.
