Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
A charming and entertaining novel that captures the romance of books and bookshops. 'When you sell a man a book,' says Roger Mifflin, protagonist of this classic bookselling novel, 'you don't sell him just twelve ounces of paper and ink and glue--you sell him a whole new life.' The Haunted Bookshop finds Mifflin and his wife, Helen McGill, ensconced in Brooklyn, where they encounter some strange goings-on in their bookstore. The unraveling of the mystery provides a rollicking plot while allowing Mifflin (and Morley) to expound on the delights of reading and the intricacy of the bookseller's art. Newly designed and typeset in a modern 6-by-9-inch format by Waking Lion Press.

Interesting for any book (or bookshop) lover. A fun read, but a mediocre mystery. Loaded with stereotypes, but forgivable for the time period.
The story of a used bookshop in Brooklyn at the very end of WWI, and strange incidents that befall a young ad salesman who befriends the shop owners. This is the sequel to "Parnassus on Wheels", but it stands on its own pretty well.
