The selection is terrific, the owner is knowledgable and the atmosphere is splendid. I rarely walk out without 3-10 books that I was looking for and fill holes in my home and professional library. The owner is a community minded person who has made this store a center for the neighborhood.
This bookstore, in the Mt. Airy train station (ca ~1880) is ten rooms packed to the rafters with academic monographs and literary fiction at great prices, many 1st editions, too!
The man that works there is a wonderful help and very kind!
