I have been selling secondhand books since the 1990s, my major specialities being books on Cricket, Africa, West Indies, and Kent. Like all booksellers, I have other areas on which a number of books are available, such as Architecture & Building, Golf, Dorset, Sussex, Military, Ornithology, Railways, and the works of Alec Waugh. I am also able to sell a number of books on Cranbrook, the lovely little Kent town where I live - see the "Cranbrook" catalog. The "Kent" catalog is therefore essentially non-Cranbrook. I joined the AbeBooks system in April 2010. New or recent acquisitions means that I am regularly uploading additional books, so please bookmark the Carvid Books site and check back every now and then! I no longer accept Paypal as a payment option following a most unpleasant and completely unjustified issue with a buyer. PLEASE NOTE, however, that for customers within the EU, and indeed elsewhere, I am unable to take any responsibility for any delay or any clearing charges or fees on arrival.
