Resource for hard to find books

Page history last edited by Anonymous 1 yr ago

The other day while doing research for my project, I came across a reference to a book that had been out of print for some time. It was a book that (while I didn't need it for my project itself) I wanted to locate and look at more closely. After trying the IPFW library, the ACPL, Amazon, and Half.com; I remembered a resource that I haven't used in a while. That resource is the Advanced Book Exchange or ABE books. ABE is an international online network of book sellers (most if not all used and rare) that Hyde Brothers here in Ft. Wayne is (or at least used to be) a part of. That was how I came to know about it in the first place. ABE has never failed me, and didn't this time either. I found several copies of my book right away, and one is on its way to me for less than $20, including shipping. Not bad in my opinion. Anyway, I though others might find it as useful as I have so here is a link:
