A selection of our books can be viewed below. Art Books
We have a large collection of art books covering various art forms (paintings, sculpture, photography, stained and decorative glass and much more). Some of these books are collectable and have been signed by the author or are unusual association copies. Our stock is regularly replenished and some of it can be viewed below or in our Art Section . For example, we currently have in stock two signed first editions of Newton’s books, Archives de Nuit and Dr. Phantasme . They would make a remarkable addition to any collection of photography books or simply be a unique gift.

We have a large collection, regularly replenished, and you will find our current stock here. You are in for a treat! Signed First Editions and other collectable booksWe always carry an interesting selection of signed first editions including signed first editions and rare association copies of Dick Francis novels. We add new material regularly so it is worth checking our store from time to time or simply contact us with your wish list. You will find our signed first editions set aside here . We have also a wide selection of rare editions of books, beautifully illustrated books and specialist books which can sometimes be hard to find.
We have more than books; we have also collectable photographs (for example of famous ballet dancers and explorers) which would look particularly attractive framed. They make original gifts.
Patrick O'Brian
We are avid readers of Patrick O'Brian's Aubrey/Maturin tales as well as his biographies. We try to keep a good stock of first editions of his work. Our current stock can be viewed here . We are always on the lookout for more first editions and we encourage you to check regularly this category for new collectable material.
Should you require some assistance in building your collection or choosing a gift, we are always pleased to help. All books can be sent worldwide directly to the recipient. Sending a gift to a distant relative, a far-away grandchild or a friend living abroad could not be easier.
