Weisberger Surrenders To Business Brand In Baltimore
The Peabody Bookshop owner Weissberger will close the store and send his 100,000 titles to Gimbels New York, declaring the age of business over humanities. He cites lack of interest in books among Americans and cites Hart prestige ratings placing Supreme Court justices and physicians above business leaders. Weissberger, undeterred, plans to write books about Mencken, Baltimore, and the humanities.
