this book i tried to sell but it never sold, i still have this btw.
the last date, as u see is how old the book is.I try to stay no later than that date.
in fact i never wanna get that high in the 1900's. but , a lot of civil war books and in that area seem to sell well. i had some completed listings but it has been a while and i cant seem to locate them. but i hope this gives you a general idea of how to locate the date on the book. They do sell. its just certain ones tend to sell better but all in all that is something you should always keep a look out for.
