Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Project idea



Mike:  Da Capo Press, Perseus Book Group, Special Markets Dept. 11 Cambridge Center, Cambridge, MA 02142. Call#(800)255-1514 or (617)252-5298.  http://www.dacapopress.com or EMail: j.mccrary@perseusbooks.com  They specialize in all sorts of books long out of print, especially military and history. I have been buying from them for years and have always found what I was looking for. I have not seen a current catalog but I'm sure it is excellent. Good luck. Let me know of anything else you need.
