About Adamstown Books
Adamstown Books is an online antiquarian and used book dealer in Lancaster PA. Our presence began in Adamstown, aka America's Antiques Capital. The Adamstown tradition is boosted by our proximity to the emerging antiques presence in Columbia PA, and the rich religious and cultural history of Lancaster County and Pennsylvania. With Gettysburg a 1 1/2 hour drive away, the American Civil War is naturally one of our key categories.
