It’s official: the Jeffery Amherst Bookshop, my place of employment for the past 10+ years, will close its doors within the next few weeks. This economic climate became the perfect storm we couldn’t survive: with the confluence of the credit crunch (no financing for potential buyers), the changing paradigm of the book & textbook business, and of course the ever-present demons of B & N and Amazon… well, barring a White Knight arriving on the scene with a Big Fat Wad of Cold Hard Cash, we’re done.
