Editor's Tips
- One of Columbus' Best:
- Nominated for best bookstore for giving customers access to hugely discounted publisher overstocks.

Excellent Place for Millitary Books
by pksampley at Citysearch
I spent at least two hours in this bookstore last year and am looking forward to spend a bit more time this comming August. Amazing amount of books and a really interesting sellection of books about the Civil War, World War II, Korea and Vietnam.
If you are a millitary history buff, don't miss seeing this bookstore.
- Pros: great selection of books
- Cons: can't think of any
