User Reviews of Schwartz Harry W Bookshops

Yelp.com Review - by Daniel A.

5.0 of 5 stars. Harry Schwartz Bookstores were the most perfect bookstores you could possibly get. I just found out after 82 years in business they are now closed forever. This is heartbreaking and I will miss HWS.

Yelp.com Review - by Dee B.

5.0 of 5 stars. After leaving Milwaukee, one of the places I still miss is Schwartz. When I'm in town, it's one of the places in which I like to stop....and I always buy at least one book (usually more).

Great place to buy books by Steve T. at InsiderPages

I love browsing through bookstores, and this one is top notch. They are proof that you don't have to be a big chain to make it as a bookstore. This independently owned place has a great selection and great...
