[GreenKeys] A new book on the history of Western Union

[Ed Sharpe Archivist for SMECC via GreenKeys]

hard cover  soft  cover  the  method of holding the  pages now pretty much 
is  glue...  do not see to  much of the old  standard sewn  signatures  any 
more as in days of  old... The  cover on a hard cover will stay a bit more 
crease free.... but.. that is about  the only advantage in most  trade 
bindings these days... 
Looks  like a  great read!

I  bought mine via Amazon. There is usually a large 
difference between hard  and soft cover of new books but look 
out when you are searching for used  books because sometimes 
the hard covers are cheaper. The soft cover  version of this 
book is new, I had to wait a couple of weeks for it. I buy  a 
fair number of books from Amazon and find generally that 
used books  are accurately described as to condition and 
usually books arrive ahead of  schedule.
