Store description

Member of Vermont Antiquarian Booksellers Association (VABA). Selling on ABE since 2003. My books are General Stock, including Fiction, Poetry, Biographies, Mysteries and other Literature, though I concentrate on Politics, History, Sociology, Economics, Law, Religion and scholarly works generally. I try to keep in stock works on Labor, Radicals, Progressives, Populists and Socialism. I also stock Vermont and neighboring states histories, literature, tracts and ephemera.
