3/04 Lewis Buzbee

Some of us who have been to a bookshop, who have simply bought books, but never really wondered how these books came about, should consider reading Lewis Buzbees’ “The Yellow Lighted Bookshop.” In it, Buzbee not only recounts his personal life working at a bookstore but also reflects the roots of the book trade. From the handwritten works of the scribes to the megastores of today, Lewis Buzbee completely covers all the hardship it took to buy books in the past, to its simplicity in the present, and the history of the booktrade as a whole.
