"I am not to forget the vast Number of Booksellers Shops I have observed in London; for besides those who are set up here and there in the City, they have their particular Quarters, such as St. Paul's-Church-Yard and Little-Brittain, where there is twice as many as in the Rue Saint Jacque in Paris, and who have each of them Two or Three Ware-houses"[1]
