Member of Antiquarian Booksellers Association (International)- 100 years of professional bookselling - buy with confidence.
Established in 1964, K Books specialises in the sale of rare, antiquarian and out of print books on a variety of subjects, including early printing (especially Aldines & Elzevirs), literature, history, natural history, classics (Greek & Roman), fine bindings, private press books, travel, Central Asian exploration, Africa, freemasonry, Spanish Civil War, French Foreign Legion, books about books, bibliography and modern designer bindings ¿ which can also be customised.
In addition to our books, we list over 10,000 portraits, mainly 19th Century engravings, of eminent personages and lesser-known individuals. We also carry a large stock of prints - views of castles, towns, animals, birds, and antique maps.
We issue occasional Catalogues which contain an interesting pot-pourri of the above subjects. Our business has always been internationally orientated, and we regularly supply books to over 100 countries, and thereby have accumulated valuable experience both in accurate and reliable descriptions, and careful packing of the books.
The books listed on-line represent a tiny proportion of our choice and fascinating stock.
