Default Booking in Gettysburg and Central Pennsylvania?

I'm going to be there this weekend. Any recommendations for booking? I'm
willing to drive an hour or two from Gettysburg.

This is probably further than you would care to travel, but if you head down
to Frederick, Maryland, check out Wonder Book & Video, 1306 W. Patrick
Street (Route 40 West). It's a huge store, with a wide range of subjects. I
haven't found any incredible bargains, but I have found some interesting
things. They also have a store at 425 South Jefferson St. (Route 340), where
all books are 50% off, and a third store in Hagerstown at 1705 Massey Blvd.
I'd recommend the Patrick St. store first, the Jefferson St. store because
it's a short drive from the other, and the Hagerstown store if you're in the
neighborhood of the I70/I81 junction.

And finally, they have a Web page at www.wonderbk.com. Unfortunately, it's
not compatible with my browser, so I get an Apache error message. In
Russian. I have no idea why.

Thanks. As I lived in Baltimore for a decade, I know Wonder Book--all three
stores--pretty well. I can't think of any rarities that I've scored there,
but I do recall finding a $10 bill in Jean Déchanet's *Christian Yoga*
(1960) that I bought at the Frederick store.


Thanks again,
