Palinurus Antiquarian Books was established twenty odd years ago because of my personal interests. The books found here are an eclectic gathering primarily from the eighteenth and nineteenth century. The sciences are heavily represented, but you will also find uncommon and useful books in many other subject areas. I welcome your inquiries.

Palinurus is located approximately 12 miles north of Philadelphia. Please call in advance if you would like to visit.
