Title: Super Score At The Bookstore!
Post by: Dharma on June 19, 2013, 08:24:04 pm
We have a used bookstore here that you can bring in your stuff and get trade credit to get books with. I brought in stuff and got enough trade credit to get three books I really scored finding. "Bows & Arrows of the Native Americans" by Jim Hamm, "American Indian Archery" by Reginald and Gladys Laubin, and "The Navajo Hunter Tradition" by Karl Luckert. I had all these books besides The Navajo Hunter Tradition but loaned them and never saw them again. I missed these books and now have them back again. And they didn't cost me a cent as I used trade credit. Bows & Arrows of the Native Americans I found hiding right as I was about to check out, so I really got lucky!! I upgraded on American Indian Archery since the one I got today is hardbound and the one I originally had was a softbound. Pretty happy about it all!!

Great find! I look everytime I go to our used bookstore. Haven't found an archery one yet.

I found these in the Native American section. With used bookstores, you're at the mercy of the person stocking the books. The books can be in the Native American section, in Hunting, in History, in Camping (????), and in the Firearms section. Same thing with new bookstores. All the archery books at Barnes & Nobles here are over in the Native American Studies section.
