About Us
More than 100,000 Volumes: With over 100,000 hard to find titles shelved within an impressively architectural space,
Dunaway Books will oblige the antiquarian and indulge the booklover. There is even more to our expansive outlay than at first
meets the eye: after investigating the ground floor and touring the eyrie of the mezzanine, don't forget to wind your way down
and through our labyrinthine lower level.
Departments: Browse an extensive collection of major subjects such as Americana, Foreign History, Military History,
Literary Criticism, Fiction, Poetry, Philosophy, Religion, Humanities, Natural History, Science and Art. We have many specialty
areas also; subjects like Books About Books, Local History, Modern Firsts, Numismatics, Metaphysics, Espionage, and Mycology, for
example, are tucked in between and around larger groups. For a little leavening and escapism, there are Humor, SF/Fantasy, Mystery,
Western, Craft, and Children's Books sections interspersed throughout the store. The front window and counter areas contain our Sets
and Collected Works, as well as some of the rarer, more antiquarian volumes. To see a complete map of the store illustrating all of
these departments listed and more, click HERE.
