Kay Books was originally a small family-run High Street bookshop in Boston, Lincolnshire, UK. Dr and Mrs Allday (my parents) ran this business from 1975-83. I worked in it, among other staff, along with a brother and a sister. After the business was bought out by a local department store the name 'Kay Books' disappeared. My father (under the name of Richard Kay Publications) however continues to publish and has brought a variety of books, almost always with some connection to Lincolnshire, to the public.
In November 2007 I launched Kay Books as an online bookshop, initially to sell my father's own publications, in the worldwide market. I have gradually found and introduced more titles from other publishers who I feel offer books of a similar nature and am pleased to say we now carry over 175 titles.
We now have an active Blog page on the site where news of Lincolnshire events, interesting facts and updates about our books will appear. I do hope visitors will contribute to this with their own news, sending reviews about books they have enjoyed from the site or comments of any kind etc. If you would like to subscribe to regular updates please use the 'contact us' form and request this.
I am always pleased to receive feedback/contributions from visitors. If you would like to contact me please feel free to email me, through the 'contact us' form, or directly at - becky.elliott@kaybooksonline.co.uk - or write to: Mrs R J Elliott, C/o 80 Sleaford Road, Boston, Lincs. PE21 8EU.
