Helpful information about books
and book buying
In the course of living and working with books we have written several articles and have compiled various guides. We are very happy to make these available and hope that they will be of interest to you.
Between the Sheets
This article arose because we were amused by the large file of items that had fallen out of the books that we had bought when we came to prepare them for sale.
John Strickland Goodall
1908-1996 Artist, Illustrator
and Gentleman
John Goodall was an artist and illustrator and author of a fascinating series of books in a very unusual format.
Large Print Books
We regularly receive enquiries for large print versions of the titles we have for sale. Unfortunately we usually disappoint our enquirers because there are so few copies available. This article describes the problems and provides some sources.
Buying Books Online
The internet has brought previously unheard-of opportunities for book buyers. Almost any book can now be found in an instant. There are stumbling blocks to avoid and wrinkles to learn.
Of course we still love to browse and buy in real bricks and mortar bookshops.
