Yeoman's in the Fork Blog

As most of you know, the annual St. Petersburg Antiquarain Book Fair was this past weekend and we at Yeoman's were on hand with a special selection of our finest rare books and documents.

Sarah and the gang at Lighthouse Books do a fabulous job and did not disappoint this year.
