Antiquarian & Out-of-Print Regional History Books
This collection focuses on used, rare, and out-of-print books of regional and local history, including scarce town and county chronicles. New England is well represented by History of Jericho, Vermont, John M. Weeks's History of Salisbury, Vermont, and the two-volume Pomfret, Vermont.
The reach is national, from Jerold Wikoff's The Upper Valley along the Connecticut River and Jim Crain's stereoscopic California in Depth to Emil Teichmann's A Journey to Alaska in the Year 1868 and Alex Harris's A World Unsuspected: Portraits of Southern Childhood. Many are illustrated or antiquarian editions.
As used and rare stock, condition and availability vary by copy, and some titles are genuinely uncommon. Browse the collection and order online.
