I just finished reading about the store and your family in Nick Basbanes newest book, Patience & Fortitude. I had previously read an article in Book magazine. I wished that I lived near so I could visit your store, it looks and sounds like a place I dream of getting lost in. Basbanes book mentioned that your father began a memoir but was, sadly, unable to finish the work. Would it be in anyway possible to read what must be a great historical adventure in bookselling? I wish you all continued success and a very long existence.
Congratulations on a lovely and well-deserved article in the latest New Yorker. As a modest customer of long-standing, let me add that the Argosy (including all of you) has provided me with countless hours of pleasure and pleasant discovery over the past 30+ years. My bookshelves, my mind and my life have been enriched by you all. Thank you,
