A propos de cet article

Charleston, South Carolina: Legendary Locals [Arcadia Publishing], 2012. INSCRIBED / SIGNED by Alma Brunson Reed directly on the title page. SIGNED copies are SCARCE. The inscription is to Rev. Tom Montelaro and continues "Enjoy this trip down Memory Lane with the Montelaro family." A photo of Rev. Tom Montelaro is found on page 44 of the book where he is shown kissing the ring of Pope John Paul II in 1987. The index mentions him and two other members of the Montelaro family. New and unread in Near PERFECT condition with only a tiny bit of very mild shelfwear (like you sometimes find in any new book store). Bright and shiny. NO chips, tears, creases or fading. Sharp corners. Square and tight. Pages are fresh, crisp, clean and unmarked -- obviously never read. Bound in the original pictorial wraps. From the publisher: "Long before C.C. Duson - realtor, sheriff, and state senator - established his town on the Louisiana prairie, Cajuns, Europeans, and Native Americans had forged homes on the isolated site. Then in 1894, Duson’s city auction enabled numerous ethnic groups to buy lots in the new town. Railroad construction brought Anglo, African-American, and Irish laborers, while Lebanese and Jewish merchants saw retail opportunities in Eunice. Fearful of war rumors in Europe prior to 1914, German families immigrated to prairie farms. In 1929, Italians arrived as the Mississippi River’s flooding disrupted their lives. By the 1930s, the Tepetate oil field was discovered south of Eunice, creating fortunes for Anglo workers. Men from nearby World War II military bases often settled in Eunice after marrying local girls. Eunice saw new arrivals as petrochemical plants and pipelines began construction in the 1950s. The diverse traditions of newcomers blended with the dominant Cajun culture, resulting in the rich gumbo of citizens’ lives. Legendary Locals of Eunice celebrates some individuals who have contributed to the vibrant and diverse culture of Eunice through the years." . INSCRIBED / SIGNED by Alma Brunson Reed. 1st ed? (No additional printings listed. Softcover. New condition. 128 pages.…

Description de la boutique

About Books [Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and out of print books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail order catalogue, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of more than 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialities listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you want to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please only between the hours of 8am and 10pm, west coast time. Our phone is a landline that cannot receive texts.…
