By the Lake Books was founded and created as Lakeview Books in 1996. The book store was on the main floor and a military museum featured in the basement . With Development and owner changes we lost our "Lake view", military museum, and changed the name to our current "By The Lake Books".
We still have an amazing military book section, and are currently in the process of revamping the basement museum to a "shoppable" book back up. As we have 3 times more space in the basement, The store is really just the tip of the iceberg!

The store is (for a used book store) meticulously organized into genres with each genre organized alphabetically by author. If there is something specific you can't find, please be sure to ask.
