Main Street Books
Main Street Books opened its doors in November 2002, originally at 205 Main Street, only to quickly outgrow that space and evolve into the unique treasure that is presently located at 210 Main Street in Historic Downtown Hattiesburg. Hailed by Southern Living Magazine as “a fine independent bookstore” (June, 2007), Main Street books has something to offer everyone.
