Book Stores in Charleston, South Carolina?
Any suggestions for good antiquarian book stores in Charleston, South
Carolina. I don't remember the name, but a few years ago I ran into an excellent one while visiting the downtown antique dealing area. Good luck stumbling onto it. Oh, get your wallet out, there were no underpriced items. |

(KevinKJT) wrote in message ... Any suggestions for good antiquarian book stores in Charleston, South Carolina. I recently returned from a long weekend in Charleston. I was surprised on the lack of any good book store that wasn't a Barnes and Noble. The yellow pages mentioned an Atlantic Books SC on King; however, when I found the address, the store was empty. All that remained was the sign. There was a bookstore further north on King; however, this was simply a used bookstore--nothing I could see as collectible. BTW, if you are looking for a good restaurant check out Poogan's Porch, especially breakfast. It is located on Queen St. between Meeting and King. There were two branches of Atlantic Books in Charleston, run by a couple and their son. Within the last year, they lost both leases and have moved the main store here to Asheville NC (Atlantic Books & Folk Art) and their son to Waynesville NC. They had always vacationed up here in Wolf Laurel so knew the area well, although Asheville was replete with good used bookstore before they came, so that may be why they're heavily into folk art now.

lthough Asheville was
replete with good used bookstore before they came, so that may be why they're heavily into folk art now. Lindig "Replete with good used bookstore" Does that include antiquarian and first edition? I associate "used books" with anything from Romance novels to what limit? Any leather binding specialists? |
