About

     E. Wharton & Co. offers literary first editions of the 19th c. through the present, featuring women writers, original women's rights material, items related to women and women's issues, decorated trade bindings, cookery and, occasionally, movable and pop-up titles. Established in 1979, the firm is named after author Edith Wharton, who as a writer of exceptional ability and variety, we consider emblematic of the abundance of talented women writers.

     Sarah Baldwin, the owner of E. Wharton & Co., is a member of the Antiquarian Booksellers' Association of America and the International League of Antiquarian Booksellers. She presently serves as Vice President of the Association and Chair of the Southeast Chapter and also is a member of the Virginia Antiquarian Booksellers' Association, The Bibliographical Society of America, The Ephemera Society, The Manuscript Society, the Rare Book and Manuscript Section of the American Library Association and the Washington Rare Book Group.

     E. Wharton & Co. exhibits at ABAA book fairs on the east and west coast and regularly issues catalogs and lists. We are located ten miles west of Charlottesville. Those of you who have read Rita Mae Brown's Sneaky Pie mysteries already have visited Crozet, which lies within view of the Blue Ridge Mountains. We welcome your visit by appointment.
