Back in the Day Books

Back in the Day Books From the classics to the obscure. Owner Boe Rushing is a past two term President of the Florida Antiq

Approximately half of our stock is new books including many current best sellers. The other half are collectible, rare, out of print, fine bindings, etc., With all of the changes in the bookworld we like to think that we are carrying on a tradition by allowing for the browsing of actual books in a brick and mortar bookstore. The owner and operator of the store, Boe Rushing, has been dealing in boo

ks full time since 2001, after practicing law in Florida for eight years. Feel free to call or e-mail us if you are looking for a particular book. We buy books in the store by appointment and prefer that you call or e-mail us first to make sure that we might be able to use the books you are considering bringing in. We are more than willing to make house calls for large collections of books or personal libraries. .

If you haven’t yet met him this is Jim. Many of our customers assume he is the owner of the store. While he isn’t the owner he has been the owner’s right hand man since we opened our first location in Dunedin 15 years ago. Jim is one of the kindest people you will ever meet. All of us have grown to love him. The other night the entire staff got together to wish Jim and his wife Deborah goodbye. They will be moving to North Carolina in the spring. If you would like to stop in and see Jim before he leaves his last two shifts will be Monday, November 24th from 2:30 to 7, and Friday, November 28th from 3:30 to 9. Thank you for everything Jim!
