Early History of Independence, Oregon by Newton, Sidney W - 1971

Published by the author, 1971. Paperback. Fair. Sepia toned paper covers, appears privately published with no indication of edition. A fair to good copy with heavy wear at the corners and edges, and warbling to the rear cover. Soil to the tan rear cover and spots of foxing to some of the page edges. Binding is solid but lacking in tightness, with all pages bound in. Only a trio of written comments to the book with the number 115 neatly to the bottom of the title page, indicating page 115 where there is an asterisk indicating a notation about the family - related to the brief gift inscription on the last page. 124 pp., sepia photos throughout, and a brief bibliography at rear. Independence is a logging town in northwest Oregon, near Western Oregon University and close to the state capitol, Salem.
