    Motte & Bailey Booksellers

    About

    Used books by Kerrytown, strong on medieval history.Motte & Bailey is a used bookshop at 212 N 4th Ave, in the block between Ann and Catherine across from Kerrytown. It is small, tidy and properly organised, which puts it in the gap between a curated dealer and an overstuffed warren. You can walk in with twenty dollars and leave with a stack.The shop names four specialities: ancient and medieval history, science fiction and fantasy, books about books, and military history. It also keeps strong shelves in architecture, history of science, world and transportation history, and antiquarian illustrated volumes, plus children's picture books.Open 10am to 7pm Monday through Saturday and closed Sunday, which is worth noting because most of the downtown shops are open that day. Walk-in browsing is welcome during those hours and appointments can be arranged on (734) 669-0451.
