Description:
Tacoma, Washington:: Anagram Press / Goat Back Press,, 2015.. Edition of 50. 7 x 9" closed, extends to 15 feet; 20 pages including pastedowns. Accordion structure. Digitally printed from watercolor illustrations on archival, 100% cotton paper. Handbound paper over boards. In paper slipcase. Signed by both artists and numbered. Empire Builder is a collaboration between artists Carol Inderieden and Chandler O'Leary; both contributed text and illustrations. The two artists lament the changes they have seen in the American West, changes driven by the thirst for oil and natural gas, changes spawned by fracking in North Dakota and ending in oil refineries of Washington. It is the story of tunnel vision and the attendant environmental consequences. The book "reads like a map - tracing both the route of the Empire Builder train and the path of industry and destruction, in one long, unbroken line." Colophon excerpts: "Seeing the Elephant was a figure of speech that came to… Read More

Description:
1858 Traditions of Dee-Coo-Dah Native American Indian Mounds Illustrated Pidgeon
"Traditions of Dee-Coo-Dah" is general history of the lost Native American Indian tribes of Northern Mississippi and the ruins they left. He claimed to have discovered a network of symbols used by an ancient race of Native Americans called the 'Dee-Coo-Dah.'
Even though the events described in 'Traditions' are disputed, the content is highly desirable and helps develop the legends of 19th-century North American Indian tribes. According to Sabin, this book is
"A record of personal examination of a great number of ancient mounds and fortifications, and of the traditions regarding them, obtained from an aged Sioux chief…The numerous plates afford very clear illustrations of many remains of Indian structures."

Description:
The saga of desegregation in the Dallas Public Schools. Following the Supreme Court order in Brown vs Topeka (Board of Education), Dallas' reluctance to desegregate resulted in the school district being under the surveillance of the Federal District Court. In 1994, after 40 years, the District Court released its surveillance and declared the school district in compliance. An interesting companion piece to Jim Schutz' 'The Accommodation', which cover much of the same period except it's focus is housing. The book is in fine, like new condition. The dust jacket has a fold on the inside front flap, otherwise fine.

This book is in good condition. There is some wear on the front, back, spine, edges and corner of the cover. There is some dog-earring on the right corner pages of the book. The pages are white, crisp and clear of any markings. "This is a history of the visual arts produced in the geographical area that now constitutes the United States. Such a book is difficult to title. A History of United States Art sounds awkward and logically might even be construed to exclude the arts of the colonial period. Thus, with apologies to our northern and southern neighbors, I use the title A History of American Art, knowing full well that the terms America and the United States are not synonymous...." - Preface from A History of American Art
