Friends of the Libraries: Suggestions for your shopping pleasure

If you are looking for Christmas gifts that are something special, why not check the Collectible Books listed on the Friends of the Costa Mesa Libraries web page? "Wild Life in the Far West, or A Detective's Thrilling Adventures Among the Indians and Outlaws of Montana," by C. H. Simpson, published in 1896, should please someone on your list. An even earlier book, "Captain Horace," by Sophie May and dated 1864, should please another.
