Xerxes Books is currently on vacation - while the office is closed you may still leave orders or inquiries by email which will reserve the books for you until we can reply in early December. Thank you!

Welcome!

Xerxes Books has a large inventory of out of print scholarly and unusual books in a wide variety of areas. We offer for sale over 50,000 titles published from the 16th through the 20th centuries. Our books are available at AbeBooks, Alibris, Biblio, and other sites - but you can save money and order directly through our website!

Our Inventory Search allows you to search the entire current Xerxes database by word or phrase. This search utility has been updated to include a full Shopping Cart feature to simplify the purchasing process. Orders are sent to Xerxes Books through a secure server.

You can browse or search our catalogues, and we are happy to issue lists in response to requests from clients or search our inventory for authors, titles or subjects.
