Bridge of Dreams specializes in rare books from and about Asia, especially Japan, and fine books in select other fields.
We see it as our job to accurately describe each book, and ship you what you order so that it arrives safely. In the unlikely event that you need to return a book because of an error on our part, we will reimburse you for the shipping and insurance costs.
We catalog carefully and accurately, and the books in the "to do" category seem to multiply when we turn our backs. Please check back often as new books will be listed almost every day. If there are specific books you are looking for, please call or email us.
