I don't know the value of your book, but back in the early 1980's, I found a copy of this book for sale at an antique store in Medford, Oregon that had belonged to one N. J. McCready. I paid $3.50. Our copy is the "Revised and Enlarged Edition" (Second Edition). I found the following note on page 15-16 of the introduction to the second edition very interesting: "The author is anxious to make it possible for all who own the first edition to possess the revised, as the new edition is very carefully corrected, considerably enlarged and more fully and beautifully illustrated.* *The author and publisher has therefore authorized his agents, the J. K. Gill Company, Third Street, Portland, Oregon to exchange the old for the new School edition for 35 cents at the bookstore, or 40 cents postpaid. Laurie Knittle Ken
