Housmans bookshop king's cross — radical politics and protest literature since 1945

Londons oldest radical bookshop tucked away on caledonian road. Specialises in political theory, anarchist literature, protest history you wont find in waterstones or foyles.

Staff actually know their stock and recommend books based on your interests rather than whats selling. They host events with activist authors and political speakers. Basement has incredible archive of protest movements and revolutionary literature.

10 minute walk from kings cross station between residential streets. Small shop but packed with books that challenge mainstream thinking.
