Store description
I work from home and have a special interest in fine press & limited edition books, art and design related titles, and books signed by the author or illustrator. However, I also offer a good selection of general stock, including history, nature, fiction, and biography. Most of my stock is hardback and in first edition. I only buy and sell books in bright, clean condition, unless they are rare copies. Dustjackets on books sold are normally sold protected with a plastic cover.

Shipping terms
Orders usually shipped within 2 business days. The standard shipping costs shown against books sold here are based on books weighing 2.2 LB, or 1 KG. If your book order is heavy or oversized, we may contact you to let you know extra shipping is required.
IMPORTANT SHIPPING INFORMATION: I no longer ship books by surface mail overseas. I also reserve the right to decline to send a book overseas unless it is by signed-for airmail, or reputable tracked courier service - which will have cost implications for the customer, although I will always search for the most competitive carrier. The extra cost of mailing a book by this method will always be presented to the customer at the point of order, who can accept or decline the costs involved.
