Eagles Over the Kennebec

I have to say that I don't much care for the hostility toward used book stores (and in some cases, even to libraries) that one sometimes sees among working writers. I know that I, at least, would feel like ten different kinds of hypocrite if I complained in that fashion, because I remember how much I depended upon both used book stores and libraries when I was a teen-and-college-aged writer-in-embryo.
