Mr. Horton liked to walk around the Queen Anne neighborhood, and while doing so, he frequently 'found' public stairs he'd never seen before. He would excitedly relate to his friends the thrill of finding new stairs, and they generally rolled their eyes and answered, "Why don't you just go out and map them all?" He then published the map with the assistance of the Queen Anne Historical Society.

Find The Map of The Pedestrian Public Stairs of Queen Anne Hill at our store, or order it online! Available in a folded version and in a poster version. 

For family and friends near and far, and for in-store or on-line use, Gift Certificates make great presents. More information and ordering here (or click on specific certficate below).

We hold Story Time on the 1st and 3rd Friday of every month.  Our story tellers include local authors, illustrators, and our very own booksellers. This is a free event and it is open to all, and starts at 10:30am.

We are a locally owned bookstore in the center of the charming Queen Anne neighborhood.

A warm, cozy, personal hangout that, if you haven't yet, you'll want to discover. Treasures are to be found on every shelf, for every person. No worries if you can't remember the exact title or author of "that" book you've been wanting to read, our expert booksellers are here to help you find it.

There is no greater reward for us booksellers than to see the joyful smile light up a customer's face when "that" book is found!

We look forward to welcoming you to our store.

Yours in Books,

The Queen Anne Book Company Team
