Carefully, he hauled himself up onto the stage where the ghosts of a thousand nake women still lingered. He felt suddenly cold as he stood there in the dusty night. Cold, but not alone." - from the rear outer cover. "In the continuing tradition of great writing out of Baltimore comes The Block. Litwin and Silverman bring us a touching, funny, wonderful book with a cast of characters you will come to know and enjoy. Four Stars!" - Larry King, award-winning TV and radio talk show host and best-selling author. "Winning, winding trip around The Block. The characters have an absorbing and colorful story to tell. The history behind the story adds to the color." - The Baltimore Sun. "A novel that is as much a tribute to a city as its good-natured, cunning cast." - Publishers Weekly. "You're good to give me another visit to The Block." - Russell Baker, Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times columnist and author. "Baltimore just isn't Baltimore without memories of The Block. The intrigue that made The Block a legend has been engagingly captured by Chip and Bob. We can sense its long-ago miystique." - Barry Levinson, Oscar Award-winning director of Rain Man, Diner, Good Morning Vietnam, The Natural, Avalon, and Tim Men.…

Store description
Vero Beach Books is an antiquarian bookseller with a constantly updated inventory of rare out-of-print books, signed books, children's books, plus a large inventory of ephemeral items such as major U.S. city newspapers going back 100 years and more, golden and silver age fine condition comic books (soon to be added), and many other ephemeral items as well as much more recent popular volumes. We have been in business for 25 years, originally known as Emerson Books (named after one of our owner's favorite authors, to wit, Ralph Waldo Emerson) located back then in Westport, Connecticut. That said, we are here to serve you, to offer you fine quality items that are conservatively described so that you will always be pleasantly surprised and delighted with your purchase. Twenty-five years in the bookselling business has borne out our stellar service oriented reputation; the only difference is that now we are located in the almost always sunny and warm climate of Vero Beach, Florida. Again, we are here to serve you and, as was the case when we were previously known on ABEBooks.com as Emerson Books, we will continue to offer our very popular 100% free search service for those hard to find books rare and out of print books. Oftentimes we are also able to obtain these rare finds at very good discounts to our customers' so it is always worth contacting us in such cases!
