Store Description

I reside in a rural community in central Minnesota near Mille Lacs Lake. Currently I am in the third year of an online PhD program in Philosophy, Art and Critical Thought at the European Graduate School in Saas-Fee, Switzerland. It has been a life-long ambition to complete this educational goal. I am retired, having served as a Lutheran parish minister and I taught philosophy at a small, two-year college in central Minnesota. I have been an ABE book seller in the past, but decided it was too much for me to do with marriage, helping to raise a family and tending to my vocations, so I gave up my book business ? These Old Books. I look forward to getting back into the shelves of books and trying to find the volume that a customer wants or needs.
