AntiqueWeek

The Book Report by Don Johnson

In this easy-to-read work, AntiqueWeek writer Amy Gale pieces together 25 essays that analyze the state of the antiques market since the turn of the millennium. More than half of the essays were previously published as columns on AntiqueWeek's editorial page, while others are in print for the first time. The stories encompass an interesting assortment of topics, from lessons learned while working for an architectural salvage business and a daily account of setting up at the Miami Beach Antique Show to the benefits of shopping at Ikea.
