Welcome!

Range & River Books  moved to its location at 206 N. Main in Bishop in September 2014.  This is the newest chapter for Bishop’s hidden used book treasure trove for decades, East Side Books and The Worn Bookworm before that.  The new location also has literary roots as the home of Pinon Bookstore for 30+ years!  Add in thousands of books, some 300 years old, and this is the BEST kind of literary location! Range & River Books strives to keep available books on the unique aspects of our Eastern Sierra region, from Western history and natural history, to outdoor sports, mountain and desert appreciation, Western regional literature, and more.  Plus we have plenty of titles to stay in touch with the bigger world out there too!  We are  located in the Eastern Sierra off Highway 395 in Bishop, California, between Yosemite and Death Valley National Parks.

Our inventory is special because it reflects the people who shop here and bring in books for store credit. Please see our Book-Buying Policy if you are interested in selling your books to us. The next time you are in the neighborhood,  have a coffee on the front porch, enjoy some ice cream, meet a friend, and come in and browse!
