Description: Landmark Books on American History: A Six Book Lot! Launched in 1950, the Landmark series on American history has been among the most popular non-fiction books for children ever produced. Several generations American children devoured these books for decades, and were inspired by the engaging story-telling and the unabashed pride in our country the books inspired. Now discerning parents and grandparents, who read them as kids, are buying these up to share with new generations. There are some good history books being produced today for kids . . . but they aren't Landmarks. All six of the books in this lot have their dust jackets, but most are in rough shape - "fine" Landmarks are almost nonexistent. Landmarks were read and enjoyed over and over again. None of these are ex-library, however, which is remarkable. This lot has some US history Landmarks and also some World Landmarks: § #W-11: The Crusades, by Anthony West, 1954. Eight printing. Wear to edges and corners. § #W-8: The Royal Canadian Mounted Police, by Richard L. Neuberger. 1953. Much wear to jacket - tattered at edges and corners. Chips missing. Name/bookplate on flyleaf. § #18: The Panama Canal, by Bob Considine, 1951. Wear to edges and corners of jacket. Chip missing at top of spine. § #W-33: The Story of Albert Schweitzer, by Anita Daniel, 1957. 8th printing. Water damaged. Jacket and bottom edges of most of the pages show evidence of dampness. Cover is discolored at lower corners. This volume is lowering the cost of the entire set. § #87: The Battle for the Atlantic, by Jay Williams, 1959, Stated first printing. Wear and chips missing at corners and edges. § #58: Clara Barton: Founder of the American Red Cross, by Helen Dore Boylston, 1955. Eighth printing. Wear to top of spin and top corners. Please examine the photos carefully to see the wear to each. Free shipping via Media Mail. Thanks for looking! Powered by SixBit's eCommerce Solution
