Store description

Adult non-fiction centers on history, natural history, travel, memoirs, poetry, philosophy, with a multi-cultural perspective, though a good portion are about the West where I have lived for 42 years. Adult fiction favors translations of foreign literature into English. Children's books include picture books, novels and non-fiction, mostly from the 1940s to the 1970s. Some titles in French, German and Dutch.
