17th November 2000
(Victoria, BC) - Do you have a shopping list that rivals Santa's
this Christmas? AbeBooks.com makes Christmas gift buying easy
with over 23 million books available at the click of a mouse.
With easy shipping and our top-notch e-commerce program, you can
eliminate the panic of last minute shopping, and spend Christmas
Eve with loved ones rather than searching for a thoughtful present
at the all-nite gas station. AbeBooks.com is the world's leading
source for out-of-print and hard-to-find books.
Because the vast majority (about 98%) of books are
out-of-print, it makes sense to buy used books when you are looking
for a unique Christmas gift. Whether you are searching for a signed
first edition, or a favourite childhood storybook that you want
to give to your own children, abebooks has beautiful and special
books that you will enjoy and enjoy giving.
Christmas gifts
Romance novels, travel books, kids books, with a Christmas
theme - or not. Books on animals, vegetables, and minerals. Biographies,
atlases, books on bugs, conspiracy, architecture, and cooking
with tapioca. And if someone you know craves murder and mystery
year round, they will certainly appreciate Christmas whodunits
such as Who Killed Father Christmas? and Carol in the Dark.
Books for you
While browsing through our virtual bookshelves, you may find a
few things for yourself as well. AbeBooks.com has thousands of
books on Christmas decorating, cookery, and gift ideas that will
put you in the Christmas spirit. Planning a theme Christmas? A
Victorian Christmas: Joy to the World records the décor,
gifts, and traditions of a 19th century Christmas celebration.
If it's your first time tackling the production of a Christmas
dinner, or if you just want to show up to your parents' place
with a killer pan of candied yams, Edible Christmas: A Treasury
of Recipes for the Holiday Season, might be just the thing. And
if you're still looking for fairytales, abebooks.com has a truly
international selection, from Fables from Russia to Mexican Folktales
from the Borderland to Folk Tales of India.
