It's been a few years since I have been there, but they were consistent perfomers for the years I was there.

The village is full of bookstores and has many shops devoted to "Militaria" Failing that - "Anthony J.Simminds" Maritime bookshop is actually in Greenwich! You mayalso be interested in the London firm "CHATHAM Publishing" who are sited @ www.chathampublishing.com Happy bookhunting!
