Updated Book Sale Lists with Black Friday/Cyber Monday Offer....

I've been working through book sale list updates over the last couple of days.  There have been many new treasures added to history, literature, Five in a Row titles, poetry, art, and more. Some previous prices have also been reduced. There are many fabulous titles from Ambleside Online, Beautiful Feet, Sonlight, Truthquest History, and Visual American History Timeline of Books, as well as many other great picture and chapter books.

Below is an index by subject for easy access.  I would love to add photos of each book, but the sheer volume of books listed here paired with my time constraints have not allowed me to to do that.  However, if you have questions about a particular title or condition, please do ask.  Send book lists, comments, and inquiries via the contact form on the right side bar. I accept PayPal and ship media mail anywhere in the U.S.

Also, as part of the Black Friday - Cyber Monday hype, I'm offering FREE shipping on any book order totaling $50 or greater today through November 30, 2016. 

May you have a blessed Thanksgiving,
Melissa

The prices do not reflect shipping. I accept PayPal and ship media mail within the U.S. Please use the contact form on the right side bar to send inquires and desired list. There is also a list of misc. history resources toward the bottom as well as books used for geography, government, economics, and social studies.
