Thank you... I did tell you yesterday that I was going to post a special deal. I will let Max know to send a little extra cheer your way!
The web page http://oldmissions.com now also has the 3 book special shown, at the bottom. A PayPal and CC Buy Now button is there too.

Thank you for the interest in the three books special! Max and I are continuing the special while supplies of Taggart's and Mike's books last... both
are out-of-print.
The Old Missions book continues to be available alone, as well. $21.70 with tax and shipping included.

Max tells me there are only a few more copies of Taggart George's book, 'Baja Bound, to Cabo and Back'. The three book special will be over once those
few copies are gone.
Between the three, you will have a great story of a first time peninsula trip, what living on the Sea of Cortez two summers years apart (before
children and after) was like for Mike and Mary Ann, and have a grasp on who founded the California missions; that Baja was California first; and
missions in Baja (all correctly listed) were the first California missions, ...and the last, as well!
The Old Missions book is the Second Edition and 2015 printing.
To order by mail (check), credit card, or Pay Pal, go to http://oldmissions.com and scroll down to the 3 Book Special, $30 tax and shipping included (U.S. and Canada). Thank you!

Purchased. Gracias!
The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

Thank you for your orders Nomads!
Should an order come in after we run out of the 'Baja Bound' book (5 left as of today), we will send another book that will have a California mission
theme, authored by Max Kurillo. I will announce that change just as soon as possible once Max informs me the Baja Bound books are depleted.
Thank you for your orders!

De nada... my co-author Max is the one sending them out (our book is published in El Cajon, where he lives). Send me a u2u if you would like me to
come by and sign your copy when I am in your neighborhood!
To further you mission research and interest, please visit our Facebook page, with many more photos... color ones too, and data beyond what we could
fit in the book. http://facebook.com/oldmissions

The 3 Book Special is still on, while supplies last.
WHAT'S NEW?:
*There will be several new additions of old (but classic) Baja books, many brand new/ uncirculated, added to the offerings of M&E Books. Stay
tuned to Baja Nomad for when they will be available. I recently acquired the remaining stock of (some) books from a Baja book dealer who I knew and
passed away. What has been stored in boxes for a dozen years or longer will once again be available to the Baja enthusiasts.
*On another note, anyone wishing to start their own Baja Book Library Collection (or add to it), I have been putting together a collection of
duplicate titles to ones I already have. I will have a special price for the whole set at a major savings over the individual costs.
Books are from the past, as far back as 1888, but most are from the 1950's-90's, the golden era of Baja books! If you would like me to let you know
when they are ready to be sold, please email or u2u me.
*I also have several editions of the famous Dawson Baja California Travers Series. These were 51 books (volumes) published from 1965 to 1992 covering
history and more. The extra ones I have range in condition from uncirculated new to (a couple that are) water damaged, but readable. These are gold to
Baja history addicts like me! They will be priced below what they go for on the Internet.
>>> I do NEED just one edition to complete my personal Dawson set. If any of you with those Dawson books would care to barter it for what I
have, please u2u or email me with what volume # you have. I am seeking one from the first 20 volumes.
Thank you!!!
