Good to see LT Local is still more up-to-date than Google Maps!

This is a small store in a historic building in a neat little shops district. The proprietress is very welcoming and there are books everywhere. It has that weird non-euclidean feel of good tiny used bookstores everywhere; I kept thinking "Yes, these books are organized! I've figured it out!" and then, no,
'Lord of the Rings" is shelved next to 'Diseases of the Aorta' and I'm still confused.

Better on nonfiction (especially history and maritime) than fiction, not the largest selection overall but quite - quirky. The prices are a bit on the high end for me, but then I'm notoriously cheap (hardcovers averaging $8 or so, paperbacks $4. )
