How to Use Our Website to Find Books You’ll Love

At JWB Books, we want every visit to our website to be a delightful journey into the world of books. Whether you are searching for a classic novel, a collectable treasure, or a fascinating history book, we have designed the site to make your experience as smooth and enjoyable as possible. From browsing broad categories to diving deep into specific centuries or authors, there are plenty of ways to discover books that spark your interest and feed your passion.

Browse by Category to Find Your Favourite Genres

One of the best ways to start exploring is by browsing our carefully organised categories. You will find everything from children’s books and travel and exploration to classic literature, Scottish books, vintage music and photography books, classic fiction novels, poetry, sports and leisure and much more. This approach helps you narrow your search if you already know the type of book you want, or it can simply inspire you to discover something new. The categories are easy to find right at the top of the homepage, making it simple to jump straight into your favourite genres or explore something completely different.

Discover Books from Different Centuries

If you are fascinated by history or want to experience the charm of books from different times, our Books by Century collections are a fantastic feature. Whether it is a rare seventeenth century manuscript or a twentieth century classic, these collections allow you to browse books from the era that interests you most. While not every older book is rare or highly collectable, browsing by century helps you uncover unique editions and pieces of history that you might otherwise miss when searching by genre or author.

Explore Our History Collections

If history fascinates you, you’ll find a wide range of books covering British history, Scottish history, English history, natural history, military and naval history, and more. Our history collections are perfect for anyone eager to explore the past through a variety of lenses and topics. Scottish history is an important part of this, offering rich stories and rare titles that appeal to collectors and history lovers alike.

Our Passion for Scottish Books and Scottish History

At JWB Books, our heart truly lies with Scottish books and Scottish history. We have dedicated special collections to showcase the rich literary and historical heritage of Scotland. Whether you are interested in Scottish literature or historical accounts, our collections are designed to bring these stories to life for collectors and readers alike. Scottish books and Scottish history remain at the core of what we do, reflecting our passion and expertise.

Find Books by Famous Authors

If you have a favourite author or want to explore the works of literary legends, our author collections are a treasure trove. From beloved names like Beatrix Potter and J. K. Rowling to iconic figures such as Charles Dickens, Robert Louis Stevenson, Winston Churchill, and the Brontë sisters, and many more, you can browse their works in one place. This is especially handy if you want to find collectable editions or signed copies by these famous writers.

Use the Search Bar for Specific Titles or Authors

Know exactly what you want? Our search bar, conveniently located at the top left hand side of every page, lets you find books by title, author, or publication year. Just type in your keywords and see what treasures you can uncover. Sometimes, trying different combinations such as just the author’s surname or a single word from the title can reveal hidden gems you might not find otherwise.

Narrow Down Your Choices with Sidebar Filters

Every collection page comes with powerful sidebar filters that help you narrow your search by price, format such as hardcover or paperback, first edition status, and availability. Whether you are hunting for a first edition, a signed copy, or just something within your budget, these filters make it easy to find exactly what you want without sifting through pages of unrelated titles.
