I've had this book for years, and I love it. In fact I'm gonna read it again. Never come across another copy or heard of the author before.

I also like the old publications... From a simpler and easier time...

I agree. I have a rather large library of older reference books. Here are a few on my desk.

you can get copies of Glimpses of Nature on Amazon. Though not nearly as cool as having an original.

I will look for some of those older books on bookmooch.com , a free book exchange site.
