Most of the catalogs you've received from us in the past tend to be for modern literature, genre fiction, and related material. Except for our long-running series of African-American history catalogs, and a couple of Western Americana catalogs now long-shrouded in the mists of time, we have never issued a straight-out-true-blue-all-American Americana catalog. Now we have. It was fun!
