This is an excellent "old time" rare book store. I have been working with them for about 35 years.

Wonderful books in excellent condition. Owner Vic is a very knowledgeable guy and friendly as well. Everything within Tavistock Books is special and the only problem is finding more space for books after visiting them. Recommend them highly!
