The lettering on the spine has started to rub. The front inner hinge has cracked. The text pages are generally clean but the book could use a good restitching as sections are loose.

Francis Farquhar wrote that she "spent the summer of 1870 in Yosemite where she attached herself to the Hutchings family and made eyes at John Muir. He escaped to the woods but not before she had noted enough of his conversation and his ways of life to make him over into Kenmuir the hero of her novel." Wikipedia . Hurd and Houghton hardcover

" from Wikipedia and "What is now known as El Dorado County has been home to the Maidu Nisenan Washoe and Miwok Indigenous American nations for centuries. The region became famous for being the site of the 1848 discovery that sparked the California Gold Rush. As a result the name "El Dorado" was derived from the Spanish word for "The Gilded One". The County of El Dorado was one of California's original 27 counties created effective February 18 1850 the number has risen to 58 today. The final segments of the Pony Express mail route ran through El Dorado County until its replacement with the telegraph service in 1861; U. S. Route 50 follows the Pony Express route today.

Confederate Wizards of the Saddle: Being Reminiscences and Observations of One Who Rode With Morgan
Dayton: Morningside Bookshop 1979. Hardcover. New introduction by E.B. Long. Small 4to. Red paper over boards with white lettering. xxii 633pp 5pp ads. Illustrations maps. Fine. A tight and pristine facsimile reprint Facsimile 48 of the 1914 first edition reviewed by James I. Robertson Jr. as "A necessary source for any study of Confederate cavalry operations in Kentucky and Tennessee." This copy bears fine autograph addition: Tipped to inner flyleaf is a Typed Letter Signed from E.B. "Pete" Long 1919-81 1p 8½" X 11" Laramie WY 1978 January 11. Addressed to noted Lincoln and Civil War scholar Arnold F. Gates 1914-93. Near fine. On "University of Wyoming" letterhead Long commiserates at length with his friend about the Lincoln book "The Lincoln Conspiracy" whose outrageous untruths and inaccuracies had the serious Lincoln scholarly community up in arms -- so much so that Gates long-time literary editor of the "Lincoln Herald" resigned his position there in protest since the publisher of the Herald Lincoln Memorial University gave the authors of this "expose" honorary degrees! Reads in part: "Just when we thought that The Lincoln Herald was under capable hands Gerald McMurtry is gone and you have been forced to resign. It is a sad day. How the people at LMU could have given honorary degrees to the so-called authors of this trash is more than I can fathom. I saw Ralph Newman in Chicago this November and I can only describe his attitude toward their actions as 'furious.' It is all inexplicable disheartening and discouraging. To try for historical accuracy to have principles to follow good historical methodology is quite beyond these charlatans who turn out such profitable junk." Signed simply "Pete" in blue ballpoint.

They Came to Jerome The Billion Dollar Copper Camp
Jerome AZ: Jerome Historical Society. Very Good. 1972. Limited Edition; 1st Printing. Hardcover. B&W Illustrations; SIGNED EDITION. This edition is limited to 600 copies signed and numbered by the author on the limitation page. This is copy number 519. This copy has been additionally signed on a pasted-on bit of white paper on the front endpaper. The book is in Very Good condition and is lacking a dust jacket. The book covers are in mostly clean bright condition. There is some light rubbing and wear to the spine ends spine joints and corners of the book covers. The text pages are clean and bright. "Jerome's modern history began in 1876 when three prospectors staked claims on rich copper deposits. They sold out to a group which formed the United Verde Copper Company in 1883. The resultant mining camp of board and canvas shacks was named in honor of Eugene Jerome the venture's principal backer. Hopes for the enterprise ran high but the costs of operating especially for transportation outstripped profits and the company folded in less than two years. It took the vision and vast financial resources of a new owner William A. Clark to bring in a narrow gauge railroad and reduce freighting costs. By the early 20th century the United Verde was the largest producing copper mine in the Arizona Territory. Jerome was becoming a frame and brick town and could boast two churches an opera house a school and several civic buildings." from Jerome State Historical Park website ; Signed by Author .

Ysamur Flores-Pena and Roberta J Evanchuk
Santeria Garments and Altars: Speaking Without a Voice
University Press of Mississippi 1994. Couverture rigide. Comme neuf/No DJ as Issued. Folk Art and Artists Series edited by Michael Owen Jones. Pictorial boards with no DJ as issued with minimal surface wear and discrete bump to head of spine. This book has had only one owner and can easily pass for new. 40 pages of text followed by 42 color plates mostly in full page. 21 x 21cm. This title can be had for less but it is very hard to find in such fne condition. The authors offer a peculiar perspective as scholars from the UCLA School of Folklore and mentored by Donald Cosentino; as artists in their own right; and as practitioners of the faith. Besides as former colleagues of mine I witnessed the genesis of this endeavor and know this title will endure the test of time. ISBN 0878057056 <br/> <br/> University Press of Mississippi unknown
