Visit to the Last Bookstore

Would you believe it I parked at the street for free...not an easy task in downtown LA lol. Was right on time, just parked around 7pm.

Store, not bad, I was mainly interested in classic literature in history, and they had;

J.R. Hale's Renaissance,
Pater's Renaissance,
Jackson's Vichy France HC for $8,
Gibbon Everyman HC vol. 1 for same,
etc.

Classics.

Loeb History & Annals Loeb edition for....$4!!!!!
Fairie Queene pbk 5,
Motteaux tr. of Don Quixote, Everyman's HC...I didn't know that version was around, and the typset was atrocious, too small and the spacing also.
Cellini's memoir for $4 ; was hooked because it was mentioned in DHL's Chatterley(the so-called 'Italian way' lol)
Brown's bio of Flaubert HC for $6.
Zweig was all new lol.

At least wanted to buy Tacitus but wasn't sure if I've already bought it -_-
So bought none(I had another one, Histories I-IV, should've bought it -_-), and huried to California Plaza to watch Keaton.

And lost my wallet -_-
