Prospero's Books is located in Manassas, Virginia and specializes in Military History, Americana, General and Hardback Fiction.

Established in 1993, Prospero's Books is housed in the 90+ year-old Hibbs & Giddings building in the heart of Old Town Manassas. Originally this building was a clothing store founded in 1898 by lifelong friends E. Humphrey Hibbs and Eugene G. Giddings. Hibbs and Giddings moved into this, their third location, in 1912. This dignified structure serves as an anchor and landmark on a busy corner of Old Town Manassas, across from the Loy E. Harris Pavilion.

Prospero's Books has a broad general inventory numbering about 65,000 volumes. We have a well-organized selection of both non-fiction and fiction and a rapidly growing inventory of antique maps and prints. We ship orders anywhere in the world and always send them safely wrapped in layers of bubble wrap and in strong cardboard boxes.

"Knowing I loved my books, He furnished me from mine own library with volumes that I prize above my dukedom."
-- Prospero
