Story

The Shire is an owner-operated, independent book shop located on the first floor (6,000 sq. ft.) of an old mill building which allows us to display our 100,000 plus volumes on wide,handicap-accessible aisles. We make every attempt to retain some of the charm of a by-gone era by displaying a variety of nostalgic antique articles throughout the shop. We trust that you will find the atmosphere of our shop conducive to leisurely browsing and there are several reading areas provided for this purpose. We do not have new books, nor do we have a specialty as such, but we offer a quality selection of out-of-print, used, and collectible titles in most major categories

Let's put it this way. I bought an 8 volume collection of all of Shakespeare's works for $6.50. I believe the owner of this wonderful shop in a restored mill building has been selling books for over 70 years. There's no price on most books. You just work it out. His collection of poetry and art books is unsurpasssed. You can also order online. I only get my books two way--through the library or through Shire Books.

This store would make an authentic and funky looking movie set, unfortunately the prices are too high for me.

This place is great! I could spend an entire day just browsing. So many books in every conceivable genre.
