Bookshops in Madrid

Hello,

Is there anyone who knows if there is any good aviation related bookshops in Madrid? I know abut the small one at the Air Force Museum but was wondering if there is any more worth visiting?

Best wishes/Håkan

Hi Håkan,

I know of one military history bookshop in Madrid: http://www.libreria-almena.com/. I've never been there, but judging by their website they carry a wide range of army, navy and air force titles.

Cheers,
Andrew A.

Re: Bookshops in Madrid

Now I've visited the shop, which I can recommend (since they had both of mine and Ludovico's books for Osprey ;-)
Not a very big shop but well sorted.
It is located very centrally near the shopping streets, i.e. easy to make a detour without the wife getting to upset...
The shop doesn’t have a window towards the street since it’s located on the first floor so I had some troubles finding it at first.

Best wishes/Håkan

Casadelibro usually has a good selection of military titles. Calle Gran Vía, 29, 28013 Madrid is the one in particular I frequented and found a few titiles in my subject area.-SCW
