Thanks for the tips. Not sure how much browsing time I can squeeze in (we're only staying 4 nights), but I have heard of the Strand and will definitely get at least that in.

My family and I are visiting Manhattan for a few days this summer, and I'm hoping to sneak in a book-browsing side trip. Do you have any favorite used or rare bookstores in Manhattan you could recommend?

Thanks,
Mike
