"Here's HOWE the First 100 Years" tells the history of Howe Military School in Howe, Indiana. It was written by Raymond R Kelly. The book is not dated inside, but the school dates back to 1884, so I added 100 and got 1984. It is a large hardcover book measuring 9x12.5 inches with 377 pages. No writing inside, no ripped/missing pages, and no dog-eared corners. It is in nice condition. The is some edge wear and the corners are dinged. The back cover is dirty, but I didn't try to clean it up. The outside edges of the pages are dirty/have age spots.This book begins with 1884 and tells the story of Francis Marie Glidden Howe and her Grammar School. There was an Indian tepee on a site later known as the Vicarage, which made Mrs. Howe uneasy. The book is full of b/w historical photos. There are pictures of sports teams, past leaders, buildings on the campus, and various functions on campus. There are lists of those who served in the military, class presidents, Battalion commanders, school records, and alumni by year. As of 2019, this school will be closing after a long history. A great book to look back on its incredible run.I would be glad to check if you or a loved one is in this book. It is a very nice keepsake and would make a great gift.
I got this book from an alumnus and don't think it was made available to the general public.

The post office is a bit overwhelmed and their deliveries are running behind.
I noticed that media mail (books) is running especially slow.
I will keep an eye on all tracking and be in contact if there is an issue, but we must all practice patience during this trying time.
