Books: Used & New

Galveston Bookshop is a general used book store with a little bit of everything. We buy, sell and trade used books, vinyl LP records and comics and we stock a small selection of new books while offering a full book search and order service. We also have audio books on CD and tape, and a small selection of DVDs and music CDs.

The store is organized by category. We have well stocked areas for fiction & literature, mystery, and sci-fi/fantasy plus over 50 individual nonfiction sections. We stock almost every in-print book on Galveston and whatever we are able to acquire out-of-print. We carry collectible Easton Press and Franklin leather bound classics, scarce items, first editions, and other unusual items as they become available.

A small portion of our stock is listed on-line with amazon.com and abebooks.com. You can use their search pages to check our on-line inventory or call and let us check for you. We receive stock and update our inventory daily.
