Victor The Reader's Reviews > The Bookshop: A History of the American Bookstore

“The Bookshop” is a very compelling and interesting look at the history of the book selling store from its humble beginnings during Ben Franklin’s time before it’s established name to becoming many types of bookstores over the coming millennium. We read of many different shops, a few that are still alive, and what their identities were and who ran them.

Book lovers will definitely enjoy this historic look of the bookstore and which ones it covers, even if it does get a bit dreary. It does show you that it’s an amazing place for all people to find something to pick up or learn from. A- (91%/Excellent)
