History Bookshop.com

This imaginative, well-organised site reflects the passion of the small group of enthusiasts who run it. For researching background material to a particular subject, you could not wish to land on a better website.


The bookshop departments are split by period but also spill over into related categories, such as historical fiction, art history, military and maritime history and genealogy. Click on the title of featured books to view a well thought out list of related titles.


Where the site really comes to the fore is with its timelines and articles (found in Themes), where you can draw together material from across the whole site and view it on one page, with links to both suggested articles and recommended reading. This is a perfect tool for researching and reading round a particular period.


Books are offered at discounted prices. The monthly newsletter keeps the keen informed of new books and articles.


This is a site for history devotees and budding genealogists.
