You’ll pick up much better (and rarer) books from second hand shops in historic market towns than you will ever come across on Amazon.

Many books that are pre-WWII are 100% worth preserving, especially if you or someone you know plan on homeschooling. It’s even better if they are pre-WWI because narratives were already beginning to change by that time (1914), but regardless… pre 1940 is generally much more honest than anything revised or published after 1945.
I just got this at a used bookstore today for only $3!
