I agree, my 1996 self says that Hammond's is tha bomb. Basically, Hammond's is a big old house that is full of books! And I mean full, as in you have to move slowly for fear of knocking over a big stack. Every room is floor to ceiling and more. If I recall, the first floor is divided into sections for non-fiction types and the upstairs is all fiction. The fiction ranges from romance novels to full-on lit-ra-chure.
I bought some Poe and Plato and I'm pleased. A great place for bibliophiles to spend a rainy afternoon. -

Hammond's is nice because you can call ahead and leave a message about what you are looking for, giving them time to look into it and even pull the book you are looking for if they have it. That alone is impressive.
The staff is very friendly, and even though they aren't open everyday and do have limited hours, you are still bound to find what you are looking for. Rather than a treasure hunt like some old book stores, Hammond's is an efficient shop that enables customers to quickly find what they need.
