Fell in love with books over fifty years ago, and have been collecting them ever since. Grew up in retail, and have always wanted to return to it. Retirement from the corporate world coincided with Sue’s retirement as a ‘book woman’ of distinction after many years with Gallagher Books. The impressive collection Don and Sue spent decades curating has become the foundation of Merrick Brothers Books.

Here you will find an incredible selection of Histories of many nations, with emphases on Colorado and the American West, the Civil War, World Wars I and II, and a splendid set of Biographies.

Our collection of Art includes artists and collections from major museums around the world, art specific to many countries, with a special selection from the American West, including Native American art and pottery.

We have perhaps one of the largest assortments of Railroad books ever assembled, covering the history of rails from every perspective, including historical railroads around the world. They comprise fascinating portrayals of the impact of this mode of transport that literally changed the world.

In Fiction, we do not focus on recent publications, but curate a collection of classic and early nineteenth and twentieth century authors.

Collectible and rare volumes range from Dryden’s Fables, published in the year 1700, to Honoré Balzac and Charles Dickens sets, to more modern works by Mark Twain, L. Frank Baum, Langston Hughes and other notables.

As we create a detailed catalog, we will be making it available - in the mean time, drop in to browse, or drop us a line below telling us what you would like to add to your collection.
