Our emphases include Floridiana (Florida history, Florida authors, Florida related ephemera), Americana (American History, ephemera, presidential), Literature of the South, Military History (including Civil War, Spanish-American War, World War I, World War II, Vietnam, Korean War), Aviation, Caribbean and Latin American History, Gardening, Children Literature, and Antique Maps. Please take time to browse our listings. If you do not find what you are looking for, please let us know. Only about twenty per cent of our inventory is online. We also welcome you to visit our shop in Dade City. Spend the afternoon browsing our shelves; we will look forward to seeing you!
