Anecdotes of Abraham Lincoln and Lincoln's Stories McClure, J. B
Rhodes and McClure Unbound Poor
This book has not withstood the ravages of time very well. The paper is fragile and several of the beginning pages as well as some illustrated pages,have just broken off. The front cover is gone, although the back is there with an intriguing ad for something called an Audiphone for the deaf.There are still a number of engraving type illos in (or with) the book, and it could be of interest just for that. I quite like some of the portraits of Lincoln--in one he has a strong resemblance to actor Christopher Walken. This is priced as a reading copy, and it is a nice large (246 pages) collection of stories about Abraham Lincoln. http://www.neonnurse.net/bookpics/lincoln1.jpg , http://www.neonnurse.net/bookpics/lincoln2.jpg

Moore's Universal Assistant and Complete Mechanic Moore, R.
J. S. Ogilvie Hardcover Poor
This book proudly states on the cover that it holds over 1,000,000 facts! Some of the facts are gone now, due to missing pages, but it is still amazing to look through, if you can read the tiny print on the yellowed pages.Full title is "The Universal Assistant, and Complete Mechanic, containing over one million industrial facts, regulations, receipts, progresses, trade secrets, rules, business forms, legal items, etc, in every occupation from the HOUSEHOLD TO THE MANUFACTORY" by R. Moore. Illustrated by over 500 engravings, published by J. S. Ogilvie of New York, probably around the turn of the previous century. It is at least before standardized time zones, since the first page of facts tells you the time in various westerly cities when it is noon in Washington, DC. (10:08 am in Denver, for instance) For other matters, the answers raise more questions. WHY did they need or want to glaze roasted coffee? And should isinglass have been part of that recipe? The contents are arranged rather hit and miss, but it really does cover a huge range of human knowledge in the 1016 pages (less the missing ones). I'm a little tempted to try to make the violet ink...although unless it tells how to make a goose quill or something in here, I don't know how I would use it.... http://www.neonnurse.net/bookpics/moores1.jpg , http://www.neonnurse.net/bookpics/moores2.jpg , http://www.neonnurse.net/bookpics/moores3.jpg

Maryland Revolutionary Records Newman, Harry W.
Genealogical Publishing Comp 0-8063-0257-7 Hardcover Very Good
This extremely useful work derives from an examination of more than 3,000 Revolutionary War pension claims and bounty land applications. Part I, "Maryland Revolutionary Pensioners," gives the name of the veteran, his date ofbirth, rank, name of the group in which he served, and the name of the pension applicant (the widow, for example). Part II consists of "Maryland Federal Bounty Land Grants," giving the name of the soldier, his rank, acreage received, date the warrant was issued, and the warrant number. Part III is alist of Maryland soldiers who did not receive pensions but whose service has been established through records. Part IV consists of a list of marriages proved through Maryland pension applications, and Part V is a list of soldiers whose Revolutionary service was in states other than Maryland. Very slight shelfwear to cover, otherwise crisp, unread condition!

Library Off-Site Shelving : Guide for High-Density Facilities Nitecki, Danuta A.
Libraries Unlimited 2001 1-56308-885-1 Paperback As New
Looks and feels unread! "This is an excellent resource for anyone seeking detailed information about the high-density storage model. It does not attempt to compare the Harvard model with other storage systems nor does it include an assessment of the impact on users of having materials in storage. However, it provides case studies and tachnical specifications that fill a gap in the literature. I highly recommend this work for anyone confronting space shortages"- The Journal of Academic Librarianship

Banners, Buttons, and Songs : A pictorial review and capsule almanac of America's presidential campaigns Papale, Henry
World Library Publications 1968 Paperback Good
This book is chock full of info about the candidates of both the Democraticand Republican parties in Presidential elections going back to 1789. It'sfull of stuff you'd have to Google for a week for, if you could find it atall! My favorite parts are some of the campaign songs, like this one against Roosevelt, "We want Wilkie in the Presidential Chair! We want Wilkie, wewant no dictators there!" (No, it doesn't seem to scan, but maybe it sounded better sung.) It has a place in the back where people could chart how the 1968 election would go, a small section on third party candidates and a bibliography. This came from a small town middle school library, so it has the usual marks and some mild wear. Still a fantastic resource for the armchair political historian or blogger, though! http://www.neonnurse.net/bookpics/banners1.jpg , http://www.neonnurse.net/bookpics/banners2.jpg , http://www.neonnurse.net/bookpics/banners2a.jpg , http://www.neonnurse.net/bookpics/banners3.jpg , http://www.neonnurse.net/bookpics/banners4.jpg
