About Us
My daughter and I are friends with a woman who
was from Chicago, Illinois, but spent her summers here in our home town on the Mississippi
River which is about 400 miles from Chicago in the state of Missouri. Her family has
had a summer home on the bluffs over the River since 1840. She found herself with
the chore of emptying out this summer home after the death of her father and needing help.
Well, after it was all done, we were left with
over 400 books. So here my daughter is trying to find a home for as
many of these wonderful books as she can.

An addendum: You'll see a lot of books
now in the store marked with "LK" in the stock number. The books marked
"LK" once belonged to my late sister, who passed away in January, 2002, and our
family decided to sell her books as well. She had 3 walls stocked floor to ceiling
with books. We currently have about 200 or so listed on the site and barely touched
her immense library. I hope you like her books as well.
