Book Passage bookstore has the best collection of travel books and mysteries around and is a joy to browse.  A cafe serves coffees and simple foods, and author events are scheduled regularly.

I attended one last Saturday that featured author Chris Baker—an authority on Cuba and author of the Moon Cuba guidebook--talking about . . .
