BIOGRAPHY

Biography has been subdivided into several sub-categories: Pre- and Post-1900 Biographies of single individuals, Composite biographies, Memoirs, Royalty (from many nations), and Holocaust. With so much attention to the British royal family following the death of Queen Elizabeth, you may be interested to read more about all of them (including a copy of Spare by Prince Harry). There is a larger than usual collection of biographies about Holocaust victims and survivors. Memoirs is the biggest category this year with tales of adventure and misadventure from all walks of life and all parts of the world. We have too many books to display at one time but the tables will be restocked each day, so please come back to shop for more during the week.
