The Canon Bookshop

The Canon Bookshop is a retailer of secondhand nonfiction, academic, specialist books, antique books and collectables. I am an academic writer based in Haworth, West Yorkshire, otherwise known as 'Brontëville', the small town known as the home of the literary family. The collection was begun by my late father, who began it in the book-town of Hay-on-Wye, where he developed his book collecting skills working for 'The King of Hay' Richard Booth.

I stock predominately humanities, arts and social studies, from philosophy, politics, international relations, psychology and theology, and art theory, literary criticism and media, but I also have sciences and some fiction, including a small collection of Welsh writer Rhys Davies, including many personalised signed copies he gave as gifts to friends.

All books are secondhand but in good, solid condition.
