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.
