Don’t judge a book by its cover. Commonwealth Books is a bibliophile's dream come true. If you have the time to dig through the piles of dusty tomes, this used-book store (one of three independently owned Commonwealth Books in Boston with its sister store on Boylston Street) is a diamond in the rough. Each of the Commonwealth shops has its specialty—ranging from history to art to locally written gems. The store in the basement of the Old South Meeting House has an excellent selection of limited-edition tomes and New England-specific historical books. The owner purchases out-of-print and antiquarian collections from Boston’s elite including retired professors and local authors.
