Our collection leans toward the academic\, but we have thousands of books\, on just about everything from Austen and anarchy to Zola and zoology. Our books are generally half-price\, including recent publisher’s overstocks. Don’t look for our catalogue on line; we’re not that bookstore. But if we can’t find the book you’re looking for\, we’ll find you a better one you didn’t know you wanted. \n\n\nOur next stop on our trip will be lunch at: Tom’s Hot Dogs 61 State Road\, Routes 5 & 10\, Whately\, MA 01373\n \nTom’s!
