London's Iconic Bookshop

Daunt Books on Marylebone High Street has been drawing London's literati since its opening in 1990. This bibliophile's haven is housed in a former Edwardian bookshop, completed in 1912 and thought to be the first custom-built bookshop in the world. Daunt Books specialises in fiction and non-fiction books spanning travel, art, design, food and children's reading, and you can also pick up a now-famous Daunt Books canvas tote bag.
