This review is from: Independent Bookstore Planning & Design (Hardcover)

This book is an excellent source for information on starting a bookstore. It gives you the very basic tasks to consider in contemplating opening a bookstore. This is just the book I've been searching for. I have been able to use it to write my business plan, as well as to get ideas for designing and planning my bookstore.
