Book Bundles
Book Bundles For discerning and inquisitive minds These bundles are a natural extension of recommendations that we might give in the shop – a balance of recent publications and titles from our rich backlist. We aim to provide choice for the giver and relish to the recipient. Our packages are wrapped in brown paper and tied up with coloured paper ribbons. Prices include UK postage; postage to other parts of the world will be added when we confirm the details of your order.
Remarkables
REMARKABLES Intriguing, stunning, or otherwise remarkable books These include fine editions, foreign publications exceptional for their interest or production, special editions and some first-rate books from very small publishers. Due to limited print runs and rare editions, many remarkables are no longer readily available. See our Remarkables Archive list for what is no longer in print, but which we are happy to track down.
Remarkables
Rare & Out of Print
Rare books Some older gems A serendipitous selection of books that ranges from the rare and expensive to old favourites in good hardback editions. Some will have been acquired on our travels, others unearthed from private libraries. We will be adding to this section gradually so do check in from time to time.
