Birchwood Books is rolling back the curtain on our inventory.  Bookmark this page and check back often as we are adding to our online stores daily. 

Owners Phil and Maureen Rosette have been collecting books for more than ten years, buying and selling online.  We finally got organized and opened our bookshop in September 2005 and hired Jane Madigan-Stein to manage the store.

Meet Jane Madigan-Stein

Jane joined Rosette Marketing Services in January of this 2006 to head up Birchwood Books. Jane is a graduate of St. Lawrence University and has an M.S. in Natural Resources from the University of Michigan.  In addition to being an avid reader, Jane also enjoys the history of books and authors. The first book she fell in love with was “Go Dog Go.” and has been finding more books to love ever since. She lives with her two sons, and their books, in Troy.

Phil Rosette

 Suspense Author Phil Rosette started Birchwood Books with his wife Maureen in 1995 just as eBay was taking off, only they didn’t realize that’s what they had done until 2004. That was the year the volumes of books finally reached critical mass and attempted a hostile take over. Like ivy on brick, the walls were thick with bookshelves . But the Rosette’s fought back valiantly and banished the books to their own house to be know from September 1, 2005 forward as Birchwood Books.  Phil is Author of The Freya Project, an international suspense novel published in 2004 by Countinghouse Press. Phil has completed a second novel, Seoul Legacy, The Orphan’s Flu. You can read the synopsis and opening chapters to each at www.FreyaProject.com and www.SeoulLegacy.com. 

Phil is also Vice President of RMS, Rosette Marketing Services, the parent company of Birchwood Books. Phil and Maureen have been collecting books since the 1970’s and are always looking to buy entire estates
