Whistle-Stop Rare Books, LLC

About Us

Whistle-Stop Rare Books is a family-owned independent bookstore located in the quaint town of Genesee Depot, about 7 miles south of Delafield. We specialize in rare, out-of-print books that are unjustly forgotten.

The love and respect we hold for books, and the history they travel with from generation to generation, is the passion that fuels our bookshop. We grasp the significance and importance of literature in today’s modern world, regardless of genre. The joys of classic or hyper-modern literature, the tears poetry brings, the faith and reason that religion and philosophy sheds light upon, or the memories a children’s story can revive. Reading matters...period.

We also carry a wide array of unique, hand-selected gift items, including journals, pens, greeting cards, bookmarks, coasters, socks, candles and wax melts, puzzles, games and more. And stickers…oh, do we have the stickers!!
