Everything will be on the table, from rare titles to moderately priced used books, at the sixth annual Houston Book Fair, 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Saturday (Nov. 8) at the Museum of Printing History.

Some 20 dealers from across the country will offer children's books, mysteries, Texas-related titles, fine art and illustrated editions, historical documents, first editions, comics and more. The Museum Gift Shop, Houston Book Arts Group, Printers Guild and other local artists will sell handmade books and related crafts.

At 2 p.m. Houston writer Marks Hinton will discuss his book Historic Houston Streets: The Stories Behind the Names, which identifies the people who gave their names to Houston streets and some odd reasons our streets have the names they do.
