The Book People Deals & Discounts

The Book People was founded in 1988 by book aficionados Ted Smart and Seni Glaster on the principle of making books available and affordable to everyone. The company is a bookseller based in Godalming, Surrey, UK. The extensive ranges of books found at Book People’s award-winning website are hand-picked favourites. They also sell their products which include gifts, toys and stationary through mail-order catalogue, and in workplaces and schools via a nationwide network of Book People Local distributors.
