In this episode I take you with me on a book hunt in New York City. Looking for rare and used books is all about the thrill of finding them. I also went to the launch of the movie The Booksellers, an insightful documentary about the rare book dealers of New York. Finally I met with Dorian, the owner of Westsider Books in Manhattan, a bookstore that is loved and supported by its community...
