About Books-on-Sea
I've been in the book trade nearly 40 years, starting off scouting books in London in the early 1980s, and dealing with everything from the ultra high-end antiquarian to the everyday. I have had physical book shops but, in the current climate, find it more effective to keep overheads as low as possible. I try and find the rare, the unusual, and the obscure in most subject areas. Please feel free to ask any questions.
