Our Employees

We search far and wide to obtain the books you want. We try to bring our passion for books and exploration to you through our business and this web site.
Our History
We first opened Best Books & Rich Treasures (BBRT Associates LLC) in 1997 in Virginia Beach, VA. Though we began as traveling vendors, we quickly opened a two-story storefront bookstore there. We then moved to the Virginia Beach Farmers Market and Antique Mall and since that time we have taken our store to four other cities and two different countries (Korea and Turkey) before re-opening in Tampa, FL. For many years we have brought our business to military and civilian communities, as military family ourselves. We are currently three miles from MacDill Air Force Base, Tampa, FL and are excited to, not only, serve the local military and civilian community, but also have our business on the web, where we are accessible to the world.
Please email us and let us know if you are searching for that "special" book and we also welcome your contributions to our genealogy blog: "[email protected]:" An Untangled Roots Blog Concerning Free People of Color Melungeons.
