Hello, everyone,
I would like to replace many old falling-apart volumes of classic
literature and other works (philosophy, history, religion, etc.). The
problem is that most modern replacements seem to be paperback. I
don't want to replace one dying collection with another that won't
last more than a few years.
Does anyone have a good single/series source for hardbound classic
works? Barnes & Noble has a series that includes some hardbacks, but
I haven't been able to find much else short of hunting Amazon or BIP
title by title. And the leather-bound "100 Greatest Books" is out of
my price range at $40 a volume.
Thanks,
Lori
