Piles of books here, piles of books there, piles of books everywhere! I have a poem about that somewhere around here...it's probably buried in a pile of papers. One of my projects for this year is to make a serious dent in the "other" material, the books not related to our specialties of antiques and art, that tend to accumulate. Our first little dent in the pile is a stack of 5 books related to the 1849 Gold Rush. You can see a description of them by clicking this link, and since you are a loyal Foggygates reader, pay no attention to the $100 price tag; just mention you saw them here and your price is $75.00, postage-paid in the U.S.
