Sue, I like the free locating service offered by http://www.alibris.com. You put in the book title and if they come across it, they'll email you. Another thing you might try is http://www.powellbooks.com. They're in Portland have several huge buildings of books. I believe they may have a locator service similar to Alibris's. shirley :) gardner wrote: >I am looking for the following books... > >Adventure in the Northwest by Edson Dow...1964 >Up the Columbia for Furs by Cecil Dryden...1950 >Snow Sentinels of the Pacific Northwest by Joseph Hazard 1932 >History of the Town of Okanogan by Harry Kerr 1931 >The North Cascadians by Joanne Roe 1980 >History of Washington by Clinton Snowden > > > -- No virus found in this outgoing message.

----- Original Message ----- From: "gardner" <gardner@mymethow.com> > I am looking for the following books... Ask your local library, they can search and obtain via the Inter-library system. If you want to search. Try a search engine, I prefer the advanced search from http://www.alltheweb.com/advanced?cs=utf-8" Use the "exact phrase". I input "Up the Columbia for Furs" and got 19 hits. The first one "find in a library", you input Washington and it gave 35 libraries. I tried the last one Western Washington University, and input the book title "Up the Columbia.." and they have it available. Again, being in Winthrop, you can probably have it sent to your local library via the interlibrary loan. Ron Bestrom
