All profits from bookstore sales support our non-profit organization. Purchasing a book about Humboldt County History, gifts, or ephemeral items from our bookstore is a great way to support the work we do!
Back issues of the Humboldt Historian are available in the bookstore or by phone order. Due to the wide variation in shipping and handling costs, issues cannot be purchased online. Please call (707) 445-4342 during open hours to place your order. Bulk discounts are available!
New! Instead of the former short descriptions, we now have book reviews by archivist and local author, Pam Service. Check them out for information about our books.
We have a selection of used books which are not included on the website. If you’re looking for a particular book, please give us a call. We’ll be happy to check the shelves for you!
We generally mail books on the Friday following receipt of your order. If you choose to pick up your book(s), you will receive an emailed notification when it is ready.
Adorn your wall with Humboldt history! Farmtastic 2025 features historical photos related to local farm production: everything from native controlled burn and harvest techniques, to Pepperwood corn, flowers, and apples. Redwoods and tanoak harvesting extends the theme beyond family farms.
The calendar was produced with the help of the Farm Bureau, Humboldt Area Foundation and our local sponsors. Thank you to all!
