...is (or was) that part of the upper Connecticut River valley bordering Vermont and New Hampshire, where there were booksellers in or near every town or village of any size. For readers, collectors, and members of the trade, this compact area was the New England version of Manhattan’s Book Row and a bibliophile’s paradise. Your own trip to “booksellers’ gulch” will give you the same sort of access without having to put hundreds of miles on your car. Booksellers from any part of the planet wanting to set up shop here should call or e-mail for particulars.
