Hi I'm Marco. I'm 12 years old. I went to Abraham Lincoln Book Shop today on Sept. 21, 2019. I had a really nice experience and got to see everything I wanted. I got to meet Mr. Weinberg and see a book with all the cabinet member signitures!

My husband and I went here on a whim, just because it was on our way to a restaurant where we were having dinner. Could not recommend more highly. Neither of us has any special interest in or knowledge of Lincoln or the Civil War, but the bibliopole (this is what his card says) Bjorn Skaptason gave us a guided tour of the store. We ended up hitting on the topic of German migration to the US during the 19th century, in particular the role of German radicals in the abolition movement, a piece of history I had never heard about. I was completely hooked and we ended up being late to dinner. It would be interesting to know what other pockets of deep knowledge Bjorn has.

Sorry no. Our areas of expertise are Lincoln, Civil War, Presidential and Military History. If you are seeking a rare book, please check with my colleagues at ABAA.org. If you are looking for a copy to read and edition and condition are not an issue I would visit Abebooks.com. Thank you.

Jerk Chicken is nearby and Eggaholic, too. Iguana Cafe, Maillard are not far and nearby is the Fulton Market Restaurant area as well as Chicago's Randolph Street, home of many classic and award-winning restaurants; most notably Au Cheval.

Thank you, but no. We generally stock pre-1900 Lincoln books.
