So Money

According to its press release, Bauman Fine Books has opened a rare book store in the Shoppes at the Palazzo in Las Vegas. Bauman (you may know of them already from their ads on the back cover of every week's New York Times Book Review) already has stores in New York City and Philadelphia.

The new store's opening comes scant weeks after the closing of Vegas' only new bookstore. A slightly desperate article entitled "Bookstores aren’t our thing, but Vegas has literary life" has all the information. But if you're going to LV in the near future, take your own reading material. I suggest Ben Mezrich's Bringing Down the House : The Inside Story of Six M.I.T. Students Who Took Vegas for Millions.--David E
