Thank you for visiting our internet book shop. Our "bricks and mortar" shop is located in the heart of the continent, but the majority of our business is done over the internet, or at antiquarian book fairs. Our stock consists of about 15,000 carefully chosen hard cover books. We try and maintain a strong and comprehensive inventory in the areas of:

Canadian exploration, history and politics

fine bindings

fine engravings and prints

general antiquarian

law and true crime

limited editions

medicine

nautical

polar explorations

rare maps

science and technology

signed first editions

Arthur Conan Doyle

Edgar Rice Burroughs

T. E. Lawrence

L. M. Montgomery

Edgar Wallace

We also carry a general stock, tending toward better books in superior condition. Books with dust jackets are wrapped in clear, archival quality protective acetate.

Our Professional Associations:

We are members of The Ephemera Society of America; the Antiquarian Booksellers Association of Canada (ABAC); and through the ABAC we are affiliated with the International League of Antiquarian Booksellers (ILAB) .

Catalogs:

We now seldom issue paper catalogs as, with the advent of the Internet, details about all our stock are accessible through our web site. We do however have on-line catalogues of our holdings in the following areas: Aviation, Books about Books, Judaica, Law & True Crime, Medicine, Military History, Nautical, Polar Exploration, and Stamps & Coins. These catalogues are updated daily.

We also create and issue specialized lists sorted, at your request, by author, title, subject-matter, or key words. These lists can either be emailed, faxed, or posted to you. Digital photos of any book in stock are available upon request from a serious potential purchaser. (We do not normally provide photos to those conducting research).
