Review: The Last Bookseller: A Life in the Rare Book Trade

The Last Bookseller: A Life in the Rare Book TradeThe Last Bookseller: A Life in the Rare Book Trade by Gary Goodman
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

An interesting book about used and rare booksellers in the era of Amazon and eBay. While the author tells the story of his own businesses selling used books in Minnesota, he also covers other sellers, include book cities, as well as book thieves, specialists, and more. As an eBay and Amazon book seller, I found this story of the other side of the tracks very familiar, and written with good humor.
