About ecbooks
We are a small online bookseller specialisting in rare and unusual books mostly published before 1900. Our main focus is on natural history, history, science and mathematics, voyages and travel, illustrated and some literature, but we have a range of other works too. We have recently moved to the beautiful Orkney Islands and will be adding a section on Orkney and Shetland. We describe our books in some detail and take images to accompany the online descriptions. Please feel free to ask for more images or additional information to help you make a choice. We are aiming to open a bookstore in Orkney over the next year or so.
