Owens & Ramsey Booksellers

This is a specialty new and used book store with a specific emphasis on military history and the American Civil War. They are not a general used book store.
If you have any interest whatsoever in military history, and even if you don’t but love wonderful book stores, this shop is worth seeing. There are other used book stores in Richmond but none as unique and special as this. There are also no other stores that carry as many Civil War titles, something of a proud title to hold in an area as steeped in Civil War history as Richmond is.
Aside from being a warm, friendly, and accommodating proprietor, the owner is also a passionate book lover. Quoted around the store is Thomas Jefferson’s famous line «I Cannot Live Without Books.» Amen! Clearly someone in love with books and history as much they are deserves to be supported in whatever way possible.
Prices are reasonable and run the range from a wall of $ 5 books to rare first editions from the 1860s and everything in between.
Highly recommend store if you are a rare book lover or are interested in history and the Civil War.
