In a sea of used books, Maryland bookseller rescues everything it can

Strolling among the rows and rows and rows of shelves in the Wonder Book warehouse in Frederick, it can be difficult to appreciate the scale of what you’re seeing. The facility covers about 130,000 square feet and contains about 2.5 million volumes, said owner and founder Charles Roberts.

For book lovers, the experience may even be a touch intoxicating—not only are there more books than you could read in a lifetime, there are probably more books than you could read in several lifetimes.
