For displaced, misplaced, and nostalgic ex-Bronxites

Posted by Miltonebx on Saturday, January 18th 2025: In Reply to: Bronx Bookstore posted by Sandy on Saturday, January 18th 2025: Prior to the 1960's the only bookstores in the Bronx may have been on the various college campuses. We read the books which were in the public libraries. There may have been a practical economic reason for this. The European born were not into reading the novels written in English and their children had no money to buy them. There were some Lending Libraries around where you rented a book to take home to read. Reference ID: BX92784 Responses:
