FrauBucher - Books, Book Searches and More ....  Frau currently has no books listed for sale. Thank you.

      For featured sale books please scroll down

 

Frau is an online only bookseller and proud member of the Independent Online Booksellers Association (IOBA) specializing in used, out-of-print non-fiction, particularly military, boating, religion, metaphysics and cookbooks. With over 10 years of bookselling experience, customer service is a top priority and your purchase is handled with great care. Frau currently has inventory listed on IOBAbooks, Biblio, and Alibris. Frau is also interested in buying good collections in her area of expertise.

 

My history: Frau has been asked if she is a dominatrix. No! Although she's sure the salary is waaay better than that of a bookseller. She's also frequently asked if "Young Frankenstein" is her favorite movie. (Pssst, it's Frau Blücher in the movie.) These questions arise solely from people seeing the name FrauBucher. For those of you unfamiliar with the German language, FrauBucher means Mrs. Books. Of course, Frau has anglicized the word "buecher" and left out the "e" or the more proper umlaut over the letter 'u' as here Bücher. (Frau's primary language is English, having been born and raised in the good ol' USA, but she speaks and understands Spanish and German- regrettably in an increasingly smaller capacity due to not using either very much anymore!)

 

If you are having difficulties finding a particular book, please contact frau. Only a very small percentage of her books are online currently. We are working to remedy the situation, but Frau would need Santa's elves and reindeer to make much progress adding inventory. Frau also works with trusted, responsible booksellers to find rare books if she does not have the book you want.
