$200.00
A substantial and richly illustrated history of northeastern Dubois County, Indiana, preserving the people, families, communities, schools, churches, businesses, organizations, military service, sports, customs, and everyday life of the region. Written by local historian Alves John Kreitzer and published in 1970, this hardcover is signed by the author.

The book covers Dubois, Harbison, Columbia, Hall, Bainbridge, Ferdinand, and Patoka townships, with extensive information on early settlers, land ownership, census records, family names, community development, schools, churches, cemeteries, agriculture, local government, fires and fire departments, commerce, transportation, athletics, social customs, and military history from the Mexican and Civil Wars through both World Wars, Korea, and Vietnam.

Numerous historic photographs, portraits, school groups, buildings, churches, maps, rosters, and community scenes appear throughout. The large number of surnames and specific local records makes this an especially valuable resource for Indiana historians, genealogists, descendants of Dubois County families, and collectors of scarce county histories.

The original loose errata slip is present. This correction sheet is often lost and is a desirable part of the book.

Hardcover remains in very good overall condition. Binding is firm and the interior pages are clean and well preserved. No extensive writing, highlighting, or missing pages observed. Covers show mild age and shelf wear consistent with a book from 1970. The original errata slip has age toning and staining, as pictured. Please examine all photographs closely for the exact condition and contents of the copy being offered.

A scarce, signed local-history volume with outstanding genealogical and photographic content. The exact book pictured is the book you will receive.
