Can anyone recommend a definitive book (hopefully still in print or at least easily available) about the NYC Draft Riot?

After due consideration, I propose that all books not created by the Stratemeyer Syndicate be banned. Thank you for your kind attention.

Just thought that should be said.

Hi, I am trying to find out more information about this defunct publishing company. My copy of "First Editions: A Guide To Identification" by Zempel & Verkler doesn't even list it, and I'm trying to figure out what the codes on the publisher's page mean. I think a given volume is a first edition...

Anyone have recommendations on where to purchase high quality bookcases? I am particularly interested in barrister bookcases. I have been looking on the internet, and found the following site that seems to have high quality wood bookcases http://www.newyorkfirst.com/gifts/4007.html I like the...

I don't remember anyone bragging about their latest book finds lately, so I'll start a new thread... At an estate sale in Southern California, I attended a sale from a dealer who always advertises great books, even though his sales usually are NEVER as good as promised. This one was no different,...

And I found a firt printing of "Memoirs of a Geisha". Price-clipped but otherwise gently read and in VG+ edition. To my surprise, however, I see many (alleged) first printings listed on Amazon for $15-$25, so perhaps this book isn't as scarce or collectible as it was a few years ago. DKM On Sat,...

This past weekend I purchased a stack of old newspapers from an estate sale. I had a chance to look through the stack and decided to take a chance. I figured the supply of these was miniscule, but for all I knew the demand was even smaller. Upon further investigation and research, I've decided to...

I have a brag and thanks for r.c.b. Today I had a ball at a garage sale. From what I heard, the landlord of an rental building was selling abandoned property left in the garage. It was a backyard full of junk, including a dozen boxes of books. Unfortunately, many books were badly damaged, to some...

Random House also used a rubber stamp -- of a house -- similar to the Simon and Schuster's stamp. I believe that some publishers put a sticker on the book. I can't remember which publishers, but as I recall the sticker was a small bright green. The sticker is fairly easy to remove. Also, some...
