Hello You are not going to believe this but the book was delivered YESTERDAY - we were out so they came again today. That's what I call service!!!!!!!! Thanks for the careful packing - the book is lovely. Thanks again
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.
