On my way to New York the other day, I stopped off in Wilmington where I met Jack and Gemma Buckley, owners of the Ninth Street Book Shop. Interestingly, the shop is actually on Eighth Street where it crosses Market Street. The shop moved in June to its current location and kept its name because that’s what the customers wanted. I’m pleased the Buckleys are carrying the book in their shop, which I think is the second oldest independent bookstore in Delaware (1977), after Browseabout Books in Rehoboth (1975). Here’s a link to a recent News Journal story about the Buckleys and their independent store.
