How to Shop

We offer you a simple, easy way to discover and buy books from Ryland Peters & Small.

You just have to decide where to begin
Is there a particular subject category you are interested in? Maybe you are an avid cook looking for new and exciting recipes? Perhaps you are about to decorate a room and are looking for stylish inspiration? Are you a new parent looking for calm advice? Or maybe you are hunting for a gift for someone special? Every season we offer a great range of new books so that you should always find something that appeals.

Our books and gifts are categorized to make it easier for you to find what you want. You can choose from Food & Drink; Body & Soul; Interiors; Gardening; Stationery and Gift Books.

I'm looking for
If you already know our range, you can select Search All. This will allow you to type in a word and the search will cover all categories. (For example if you type 'White' into Search All you will find White Wine as well as At Home with White). You can also search by keywords, titles, authors, photographers as well as ISBN numbers.

Alternatively you can simply browse through the categories and see what takes your fancy! In addition, our News Page may inspire you with reviews, interviews and information on new books. Clicking on a book cover will take you to a brief summary of the book and author, and book reviews and key information are also available.

When you know what you want to buy
Choose the book or stationery items you like and add them to your basket. This appears under each book as well as at the top of each page. You will be able to add, update or remove items with complete freedom. When you have finished your choice, simply check out. This will take you to your account log in, which simply requires your email and a unique password of your choice. Then it's just a matter of filling out your details and method of payment, confirming the delivery address if it is different to your card billing address. Before buying you will be asked to read our Terms and Conditions which cover our general conditions and Privacy Policy.
