    From the Solari website. “The Booksellers” is a rare opportunity to dive into the fascinating world of book lovers and book dealers, and to understand the importance of hardback books in preserving history. It offers a walk down memory lane into a rich and wonderful culture that treasures knowledge and learning and once defined New York.

    • Hello DanaThomas,

      Thank you for the wonderful reminder, not only of the documentary but also its location of my birth home of New York. “The Booksellers” is a documentary I need to watch (put stickies as reminders all over the house) and inspire myself to maybe one day live my dream of owning a bookstore and having children discover the magic in their pages. Catherine Austin Fitts mentioned the documentary in either Money and Markets or Ask Catherine which i was listening to while folding clothes earlier this afternoon. Thank you once again anc wish you a wonderful rest of the day, god bless you.

        • This shows the resilience of real books and what they can transmit!

            • Hello DanaThomas,

              Yes, you are so right, thank you once again for sharing this wonderful post. We all need reminders such as this, along with the encouragement to help flourish this priceless tradition of pressed pulp and ink, while protecting the existing treasure trove of such rarities.

          • I so look forward to watching this! It brings back many fond memories of time spent in little funky charming tucked away independent book shops. Thank you Dana.
