An online discount Art + Design book shop

Books About Art have so many wonderful books!!! I was worried at first, since I'm a bit of a bookworm, that they'd only have big glossy "coffee-table" style books - you know the type, just with big arty photos? (Which are fine, if they're what you're into!!!) But no, they have plenty of great books you can actually READ!!!

They are fabulously priced & they post really quickly!!! Plus they package the orders really well, so there's no risk of your precious books being damaged....

Thank you Books About Art - you're AMAZING!!!

Terrific service and top quality in every way!

Over time ‘books about art’ has without a doubt led me to find some of the greatest works of high quality literature their selection covering such a wide ranging subject offers. Recently I have made some great discoveries browsing their website and if I can find any fault at all, it is that the literature on offer is far too tempting, especially at such bargain prices! Add really speedy delivery and ‘books about art’ provides book lovers with the perfect service.

A must for lovers of the well written song!

This is a well researched, in depth, yet easy to read book that covers Warren Zevon’s 12 major album releases, while also detailing some of his more obscure recordings. In it author Peter Gallagher analyses ‘each album, every song’ as the book cover quotes, that Warren Zevon recorded up until and including his final studio album ‘The Wind’ released in 2003. It really does make the perfect companion to all of Warren’s recorded work and an essential read for anyone who appreciates the music of this late, great, singer songwriter. A must for the lover of well written songs!
