Old and new books, antiquities and rarities offered directlu from publishers and antique shops.

At this website you will find over 2.200.000 books written in Spanish and Portuguese, both old and new, which are on sale in 340 different bookstores. The greatest advantage that this online catalogue offers is that it is really easy to find the book that you want and then order it quickly, cutting the middlemen and thus saving time and money.

This is a free service that does not charge any commissions, nor it intervenes in the actual sale of each book. It was created to improve the sale process of old and antique books and make it easier for sellers and customers to get together; the catalogue exists and it is financed with the help of the intervening bookstore owners, editors and antiquarians, who not only help to finance the site, but actually make the catalogue.

It is a service worth exploring, even if you don't understand much Spanish or Portuguese - which are very similar languages, by the way - because you never now what you are going to get. Naturally, our particular interest is directed towards books related to exploration, adventure and natural sciences, but with such a wide offer, we believe that anyone will find a book related to his or her tastes or interest, whatever they may be.

It is also an interesting source of written material useful to compare how thorough the years the same books, written by the same authors who no longer modify them, are actually transformed: editors, publishers, fashion and even political conditions are, in the long run, usually capable of literally rewriting a book, and this can only be seen if you can get two samples of a similar book from different years.
