Store Description

Campbell & Buccleuch is a subsidiary of Sholto Campbell Books (which specialises in Latin and Greek and the Ancient World). Campbell & Buccleuch is a larger and more general bookstore, with our main sections on Africana, Arabic and Semitic languages, European languages (French, Italian, some German), English novels and poetry, English letters and diaries, History, Biography, Cookery, Travel and Exploration. All our books are second-hand, and are in good, very good or as-new condition. All of our books are checked before being entered on Abebooks and we discard any books that are damaged, not clean, or have markings to the text. With very rare exceptions, we do not sell books that have previously come from a public library. We photograph all of our books before entering them and show details of any defects. We charge postage at the rates provided by Royal Mail, and our online pricing takes this extra postal charge into account.
