Black River Books began as a hobby that grew into a passion, then a small, part-time internet business, and finally a used bookstore with an actual storefront.
Dick and Pam Haferman, the owners, started with collecting modern fiction first editions. As their interest and their collection grew, although they each had full-time professions, they dreamed of one day owning a store. Toward that end, they have for years collected books in as many genres as possible.
