Three new catalogues.

Three new catalogues.

This month we review three new bookseller catalogues. Old West Books takes us back to the days when the West was young with their 70th catalogue on the American West. The George S. MacManus Company has its sights set on Dixie, the American South. David M. Lesser Fine Antiquarian Books takes a broader look at antiquarian Americana, all regions included.
