Congratulations to Sheafe Street Books, Portsmouth, N.H., which is marking its fifth anniversary this month. Owned by Ken Kozick, a former sales rep for Golden-Lee Book Distributors, Bookazine, Falcon Press and Globe Pequot Press, the store is on the first floor of a townhouse in historic downtown Portsmouth and sells a mix of new, used and collectible books.
Because of a "serious road construction project" that probably won't be finished for another month, Kozick will wait to throw a party with "a sale during the day and some free beer after closing hours."
