Books-A-Million
[2] Stores range in size from 4,000 to 30,000 square feet and sell books, magazines, manga, collectibles, toys, technology, and gifts.[2] Most Books-A-Million stores feature "Joe Muggs" cafés, a coffee and espresso bar.[3][4] Books-A-Million was founded in 1917 in Florence, Alabama,[1] as a newsstand by 14-year old Clyde W. Anderson, who dropped out of school to support his family after his father died.[5] Anderson saw a business opportunity after workers on the nearby Wilson Dam complained that they could not get their hometown newspapers.[9] In September 2010, the company launched 2nd & Charles, a trader of used media, with its first store in Hoover, Alabama across from Riverchase Galleria.
