HOLABIRD RESEARCH LITERATURE SALE, PART 2

Wow! I was really excited after my first duplicate book list went out. I tried to put little notes here and there, as well as try to keep the prices reasonable to cheap, except great rarities. I've gone through another round, added about 100 more, and deleted those sold from the first go-round. I've got more boxes to go through yet. When I combined two libraries of decades in the making, there were bound to be duplicates, many of complete surprise to me, like the Truckee directory, and some of the Gold Rush stuff.

You can view my updated book list and prices here.

For years, I have been after the contents. The info out of that author's brain is what I'm after. I also have been after signed copies from the great geologists and mining men. I might be the only collector… well, maybe…

I generally only acquired primary source material. Thus my Cal gold rush, Nevada, California, Arizona; assaying, mining & metallurgy sections are exceptional. This is the stuff I use to write so many papers.

Speaking of primary source material, Newspapers.com just published a great portion of the Territorial Enterprise within the last week! We've never been able (us historians and archivists) to put together a full run of that famous paper. The early years are generally missing, with a few issues scattered about in various institutions.

During the process, I even discovered a couple books I wrote that I had completely forgotten about. It also reminded me of some articles I wrote regarding Browne, Raymond and more, and I just found those today, and hope to re-work them and publish again so you can download the info.

Dave Schenkman and I have been working on a fun book about American mining history and the mining tokens and scrip that were used in the early 19th c to early 20th c. I thought I had my part mostly done, until I reread my original manuscript, and … well, you know, … it's clear a rewrite is in order after sitting for 30 years…..
