I am recommending Historical Publishing Network in San Antonio and by way of a copy of this to them, am suggesting they contact you. They are doing an illustrated history for us right now; due out the middle of this month. We have seen the final product but based on the proofs, we are quite satisfied. If you don't hear from them soon you can initiate the contact: Ron Lammert Heritage Publishing Network 8491 Leslie Road San Antonio, Texas 78254 1-800-749-9790 ------ Robert Handy Brazoria County Historical Museum 100 East Cedar Angleton, Texas 77515 (409) 864-1208 museum_bob [log in to unmask] http://www.bchm.org ---------- From: jay[SMTP:[log in to unmask]] Sent: Wednesday, January 06, 1999 7:15 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Recomendations for good published local histories Greetings fellow Listers: Our organization is being considered to possibly spearhead the publication of a book on the twentieth century history of our county. We are excited about the possibilites and hope to begin this project soon. In the meantime, however, I was wondering if people on the list would recommend other published local histories you feel are well done. We would like to look at how they are organized, etc. Please let me know if they are available through interlibrary loan (if you have that information.) Please feel free to contact me on or off the list. Off list at the following address: [log in to unmask] Thank you in advance for your response. I hope that you all enjoyed pleasant holidays.
