3. Daunt’s started life over 20 years ago when the shop was purchased by former banker James Daunt. At first, the store specialized in travel writing and the books were arranged by country. Later the owner decided, to expand Without changing the organization of the store. Today you can still find travel guides and maps of Moscow in the section dedicated to Russia, but you can also find novels and poetry by Russian author there, too There are also section dedicated to more unusual places, such as Ethiopia, Tibet, and. the polar regions, At the front, of the shop, there is a fantastic selection of newly published fiction and non-fiction and a superb children’s section full of weird-and wonderful picture books.
4. The staff at Daunts have, a reputation for being friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. which makes it difficult for booklovers to stay away Each customer is greeted when they enter the shop because they have to walk past the service desk, The assistants allow visitors to take their time looking round, yet they are always on hand to give advice when necessary
5. Unlike its competitors, Daunt’s hasn’t invested heavily in technology, because it hasn’t needed to. Its website is basic, but charming. It contains a virtual tour of the Marylebone store, which is well worth exploring, and there are also reading lists and ‘books of the week’. Daunt’s competes on specialism and quality of selection rather than price, offering customers a breath of fresh air when they are looking lor a particular book.Question:
