Add a CommentThis book should appeal to readers of every age. Different ages will take away different meanings, impressions of the time, place and people so lovingly portrayed in word and picture. I especially enjoyed the quotes on the end papers!
This is great book about a great man and great bookstore! Suitable for all ages!
