You’ll pick up much better (and rarer) books from second hand shops in historic market towns than you will ever come across on Amazon.

Many books that are pre-WWII are 100% worth preserving, especially if you or someone you know plan on homeschooling. It’s even better if they are pre-WWI because narratives were already beginning to change by that time (1914), but regardless… pre 1940 is generally much more honest than anything revised or published after 1945.
I just got this at a used bookstore today for only $3!

"Listen to high music,
go to the National Gallery,
Look at what we have produced as a group!
I urge all White people in this era,
to look into the mirror,
and to ask themselves,
what do you know about what you are??
and if you don't know enough,
put your hand on that mirror and move towards greater knowledge of what you can become!"
