Bell's offers a delightful and eclectic combination of new, used, and rare books.
While you might find scarce seventeenth century herbals, with botanical woodcuts, printed on handmade linen rag paper; 18th and 19th century medical treatises bound in sheepskin; signed limited editions by Joseph Conrad, Jack London, or Wallace Stegner; and gilt-edged, Moroccan leather bound sets of the works of Charles Dickens, you could also find the latest children's book on Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and the new biography of Barack Obama.

With 300,000 volumes in stock, and hundreds pouring in daily, we are not able to provide a listing of our titles, but we hope to offer a selection from our special holdings online this summer. There's no substitute for visiting and browsing the shelves!
We have large collections of (to name a few) quantum mechanics, Greek & Roman classics, 19th-century leather-bound poetry, Picasso, Frank Lloyd Wright, and Western Americana, plus the outrageous 800 Big Little Books!
