Please bear with us while this section of the site undergoes construction. Maria Arrango's wonderful winter's work scanning in "The Life and Works of Dr. Anderson, M.D., The First American Wood Engraver." by Frederic M. Burr, A.M. Publisher (1893) is here, and the link is below. Some of the images will not appear, as we have not straightened out some browser compatibility problems. This section is under construction, and hopefully any problems will be resolved soon. If you have any questions, would like to volunteer to help scan in other titles, or have titles 75 years or older that could be scanned in, please do not hesitate to contact the webmaster.
