Store description

There is a stock of 80,000+ in the small town of Bere Alston, which is in an "area of oustanding natural beauty". It is open five days a week (closed Wednesday and Sunday) 10am to 4.30pm. This is a mining area and I am interested in buying mining books and academic books in large quantities.
