I picked up two new ULTBs at a local Friends Of the Library booksale. One was the Little Hills by Nancy Huston Banks published (and apparently printed) in 1905. I don't know the author and I have no idea of the content beyond this being a novel. It was just a beautifully made book in gorgeous condition. The cover has a raised arts and crafts style design. The binding is tight. The pages are deckled and gilt on top. Someone had cared for this book and now someone will read it.
By the way I picked up 34 lbs. of books for $10 at this sale. These booksales are agreat bargain for a great cause.

There are, in fact, two copies of The Little Hills registered here.

Sounds like a lovely find, Douglas!

So lovely that I vote for Douglas to scan it and upload the cover! I'm a great fan of Arts and Crafts style bookbindings, so would very much like to see it.
Oh, wait! I think I found it. Is this it? (a .pdf)
