“The bookstore should be the most agreeable of places. It should invite those thirsting for knowledge, and those whose appetite needs to be stimulated by a tempting display of books, to come in, and make themselves at home, and buy to the extent that they may please." (Publishers' Weekly, February 28, 1885)
