About Us
Kay Books was originally a small family-run High Street bookshop in Boston, Lincolnshire, UK. My parents (Dr and Mrs Allday) ran this business from 1975-83 and, among other staff, I worked in it along with a brother and a sister. The business was then bought out by a local department store and 'Kay Books' disappeared. My father however continues to publish a variety of books almost always with some connection to Lincolnshire, under the name of Richard Kay Publications, and supplies bookshops with these titles.
In 2007 I, Rebecca Elliott, 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 please to say we now carry over 120 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, add reviews of books from the site etc.
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 Blog page, or directly at - becky.elliott@kaybooksonline.co.uk - or write to: Mrs R J Elliott, 84 Tytton Lane East, Wyberton, Nr. Boston, Lincs. PE21 7HP.
