RC = RARE, COLLECTIBLE ITEMS
Books listed here as rare/collectible are single copies. The same titles can also be viewed by searching other internet dealers' rare/collectible book listings. Prices here are adjusted from findings there, along with evaluation based on condition and edition as well as pertinence to their subject matter. Many other titles listed on VistaBooks Encore are priced at points other than when published, based on similar evaluations, and may even be at lower prices. Also see Pricing and also see Condition.
How did we get rare and collectible books? It was not planned. The parent VistaBooks publishing of VistaBooks Outlet and VistaBooks Encore got the idea of reprinting first-person or participant-observer accounts of events important in American history and making them available for sale at interested parks and museums relating to those events. The idea was to make the stories of those sites more real than could later historians. Material was needed for these stories and so prowls were made of out-of-print bookstores. When a potential title for reprinting was discovered, it was purchased to await its turn for publication. Some of these sources resulted in nearly one hundred reprints that were made available to park and museum visitors through onsite outlets where the events occurred--but most did not. In both cases, however, the original material was retained--and has been sitting on shelves for decades ever since--and in many cases increasing in value. Other material was acquired for resale from other publishers but did not completely sell out and likewise in many cases has become scarce. After over 50 years of these programs, VistaBooks is now downsizing and much of this material will never be used. Hence VistaBooks Encore was formed to find homes for books and magazines that should continue to be part of Americana holdings that are retained for the future. Hopefully you as a reader will find even more meaningful the reading of accounts on pages where they appeared early as well as help continue their history. Or perhaps as an investor or a reseller you will be aiding in the continued existence and availability of materials important to our history, especially in an environment where they will continue to be understood and appreciated, rather than face an uncertain destiny.
While we have separated out as Rare/Collectible some of the more special books on VistaBooks Encore ( these are also being listed on VistaBooks Vintage), there are many more on the site that have special interest and even value that can be found by browsing by author, subject, region, and more on the site's home page. Many also appear on eBay.
RC #1877 ARIZONA AS IT WAS. by Hiram C. Hodge.
Author Hodge came to Arizona long before it became a state, seeking its climate to relieve suffering from bronchial and pulmonary diseases, as did many others during this and later periods (in his case it seems to have worked). He toured what is now the state in 1874, 1875, and 1876 observing and writing articles, first publishing in book form in 1877 as Arizona As It Is, Or The Coming Country... by Hurd and Houghton of New York City. Hodge wrote on Arizona's mineral, agricultural, grazing, and other resources--and of its climate, scenery, and prehistoric ruins. The book's 28 chapters tell further how the U. S. acquired the territory from Mexico, origin of the name Arizona, mission church at San Xavier, of its mountains, rivers, forests, flora, wild animals, towns, Indian tribes, schools, railroads, newspapers, military posts, travel routes and distances, and also the prices of produce, provisions, and labor. Rio Grande Press reproduced Hodge's book first in 1962 as Arizona as it was 1877, then again in 1965 as 1877 Arizona as it was, the book described here. Introduction is by United States Senator Barry Goldwater. The present copy was acquired directly from the publisher by VistaBooks and has never circulated, so is listed as new. 273 pages, map, a few illustrations, index,

RC SILENT SPRING. by Rachel Carson, with drawings by Lois and Louis Darling. 1962 first edition/first printing of monumental work on environmental concern, backed by citations of sources listed from page 301 to 355. Carson also authored Under the Sea-wind, The Sea Around Us, and The Edge of the Sea. She is one of the most important environmental writers of our time, and she and her Silent Spring are given much of the credit for initiating the so-called environmental movement (Paul Brooks in Audubon, January 1987). Thus it is now also an important historical work. The book was attacked by the chemical industry, to the point where President Kennedy set up a panel of his Science Advisory Committee and its report completely vindicated her thesis (Brooks again).
Published by the Houghton Mifflin Company of Boston, Library of Congress Catalog Card No. 60-5148. Includes index. Cover is dark green cloth with gilt letters for title on front and on spine. Two corners are slightly bumped and there is a tiny bit of rubbing on the bottom of the spine. There is no dust jacket. There is an owner's name on a front page and an owner's name and address (in Yosemite National Park) on another front page. Bookseller's stamp is on the inside back cover, showing an acorn design from Best's Studio (now Ansel Adams Gallery), Yosemite Valley. It seems prophetic that the book has an association with a spot where an earlier environmental movement began with the 1864 setting aside of Yosemite. There are 368 pages, plus front matter. The book is 6 inches by 8 1/2 inches. Binding is tight. All pages are intact. Based on the standards provided by eBay for antiquarian and collectible books, its condition is judged as between Like New and Very Good. The book has had a single owner to date.

RC STEEP TRAILS (VINT3628). by John Muir, edited by William Frederic Bade.
1918. First edition of Muir's adventures and explorations of western scenes, with introduction by William Frederic Bade dated May 1918, with the copyright dated September of that year. Muir died at the end of 1914 so this is a posthumous edition yet the writing is largely taken from contributions he made to books and magazines from the late 1800s. Topics range among Mount Shasta (including the essay recounting Muir's survival in a snowstorm by getting warmth at a hot spring), Salt Lake City (and bathing in the Great Salt Lake), southern California, Nevada's farms, forests, timber, and glacial history plus ghost towns even then, Washington State, Oregon, and the Grand Canyon. Muir includes one harrowing winter sojourn into Yosemite's Tenaya Canyon but overall Steep Trails indicates how much roaming Muir did beyond his Yosemite. There are 24 separate excursions and accounts, 12 black-and-white photos are included, 9 by Herbert W. Gleason. 391 pages +xii, index. Size is 5.5 in. x 8.5 in.
The book's cover is a pale greenish-gray with a color photo believed to be Mount Shasta in northern California. No dust jacket. Viewed from above the book's top, pages have gilt edges. There is some minor bumping and a hardly discernible spot on the back lower right where a price sticker may have been removed. There is a gift inscription dated 1919 on the first page facing the inside cover; no other marks. Binding is tight; all pages and illustrations are present. Published by Houghton Mifflin Company of Boston and New York. Printed on last page is "The Riverside Press, Cambridge-Massachusetts, U. S. A." Using eBay's standard for book condition, this copy of Steep Trails ranks as Very Good. This copy has been in a private collection for some 50 years. See sample pages, illustrations.

RC THE TETONS: Interpretations of a mountain landscape (cloth). by Fritiof Fryxell.
1938 first editon with author's gifting notation in front: "To Dean and Mrs. E. H. Kraus with the sincere appreciaton of 'the Base Lake contingent.' --F. M. Fryxell". At the bottom of this same page is "June, 1942" in the same script and fine pen.
Fryxell was an early Grand Teton National Park ranger-naturalist who made numerous first ascents of the peaks there, authored numerous books on its geology and completed several more for Francois Matthes on Yosemite and Sierra Nevada topics, and was affiliated with the U.S. Geological Survey, as well as a professor of geology. In World War II as assistant chief of the Military Geology Unit, Fryxell was responsible for analyzing the terrain of projected battle sites.(It is intriguing that there has long been a military installation in Nebraska at a Base Lake, yet that name does not appear on a lake in Wyoming or at any other place in the United States, so a possibility is that Fryxell had been associated there during the war. It also is that the Dean of the College of Literature, Science and the Arts at University of Michigan in 1942 was E. H. Kraus, a professsor of mineralogy, who was married. It does not take much imagination to posit that Kraus in some way assisted Fryxell's military geology work and Fryxell recognized that with a gift. (These are strong clues as to who Fryxell signed this copy for, already perhaps known beyond a reasonable doubt, and help us surmise that this copy was once owned by Dean Kraus.) Published by University of California Press by Samuel T. Farquhar, University Printer (brother of Francis P. Farquhar, a Sierra Nevada mountaineer who authored several books on that region and its history and was a Sierra Club president).
On the tan dust jacket of this book is the notation in red type: "A guide for visitors to the Grand Teton National Park, and a delight for travelers by the fireside." Fryxell contrasts the Tetons with near Yellowstone National Park and describes the mountains and their rocks and faults and explains how the scenic features were formed, including their later glaciation, then describes the present landscape and even the cloudscape with personal observations. Black-and-white photographs show both scenery and rock samples; two diagrams give the distribution of the rock types in both plan and cross-section views. A fold-out map is attached. Size is 5.25 in x 7.75 in, 76 pages, illustrated, map, index.
The dust jacket is in good conditon, lightly soiled, having no tears, with the front inside flap clipped diagonally at its top; back jacket flap is intact. Cloth covers are rust-colored; on the front cover is printed the title; the back is blank. Inside pages are unmarked except for the gifting inscription. All pages and illustrations are present and intact and the binding is tight. The map has a 1-inch tear where it is attached; otherwise is solidly in place and smoothly folded. Using eBay's rating of condition, this book is judged Very Good. See sample pages, illustrations.
