Where? Florence, Italy
Recommended by WT from California
WT said: "We love book stores and have been traveling Europe for 16 months with a 7 year-old voracious reader who never met a book store that she did not love. Here is a great one in Florence."
BM Bookshop is probably the oldest English language bookshop in Florence, Italy. It was opened some fifty years ago by Libby, an American, and her husband Francesco, an Italian from Florence. The main boast of this bookshop is the enormous range of Italian cookery books, tourist guides and books on art, architecture, design and fashion in English. Recently they have added a French, German and a Spanish language section to their existing English one. If, after shopping, you find your purchases too heavy to carry home, it is possible to arrange their direct delivery anywhere in the world. BM Bookshop is a warm and friendly reference point for English speaking people, located in central Florence, close to the Westin Excelsior and Grand Hotel.
