Founded in 1986, Caledonia Books is based in the West End of Glasgow at Kelvinbridge. They buy and sell general second-hand and antiquarian books on a wide range of subjects, including Scottish, Art, Literature, History, Military, Natural History and Philosophy.
This store is a frequent haunt for university students. This really is the kind of book shop you can get lost in with shelves and shelves and haphazard stacks of books and an old fashioned metal spiral staircase. In the back, there's a special room for media and films. The books can be ordered on-line via the ABE site but they offer a 10% discount on books ordered directly from the store. They keep a record of customers wants and can find books for you...just let them know.
