Oregon GeoSites: The Gazetteer with an Attitude, compiled and edited by M. Constance Guardino III with Reverend Marilyn A. Riedel, M.Div., is a compendium to their first book, Sovereigns of Themselves: A Liberating History of Oregon and its Coast, popularly known to many as “The Oregon eBook.” http://users.wi.net/~census/lesson44.html Oregon GeoSites stands out in the arena of regional gazetteers and atlases because it connects post offices with communities, local environments and cultures. Postal service during the last two centuries has been the primary means by which people have communicated over great distances. Even today with cell phones and email at our disposal, many people who desire to communicate with another over distance, usually choose to make a phone call or write a letter. Oregon GeoSites was made possible in part due to “OREGON 150” because of the high volume of new research information on the internet that might otherwise not exist. This four-volume, 588-page amply illustrated reference ebook is available for $15.00 and includes shipping and handling. Generous discounts are available for school and public libraries.

You can order the set (The Oregon eBook AND Oregon GeoSites) for the low price of $25.
