Wide Boy will take the reader directly into the balmy streets of a summer day in Bez Valley; the the street brawls of the s Hillbrow and Yeoville; to the post war euphoric boom days of Southern Rhodesia, the ensuing bush war and finally to return full circle to the sometimes murky otherworld of 'big business' in Johannesburg.   A passion for books and a passion for collecting fine editions was the recipe that created the successful group of bookshops in Johannesburg called Bookdealers. The group started thirty years ago with one store in the quirky suburb of Yeoville and has grown through the years to a total of five shops, plus our online sales. Bookdealers is well-known for its collectable and used books. We also have a large variety of remaindered books sourced from around the world.  If you collect from one of our five branches there is no delivery charge. We also offer postal delivery (when available) and courier delivery, subject to a quote.
