Hello history friends!

I'm taking a couple of classes next semester and have just received the book lists. There are a lot of books and I'm worried about paying for them on top of tuition. I may be able to buy some of them cheaply through Amazon or find some at the library. (Some of them will be on reserve at the library of the university where I'm taking the course, but that doesn't help me because I'll only be there on the evening of the class.)

So I posted to my journal asking if anyone has any of the books and can sell or lend them to me. I thought I would check here, too, since members of this community may be more likely to have history books lying about!

Here is the list. #1-2 are survey texts, and #4-12 are about labor history in the United States:

1. Boyer et al., The Enduring Vision, Volume 2, 6th edition (2008)
2. Lorence, Enduring Voices, Volume 2, 4th edition (1996)
3. Studs Terkel, Hard Times: An Oral History of the Great Depression (1998) - found someone to lend me this!
4. Dubofsky & McCartin, eds., American Labor: A Documentary Collection (2004)
5. Fink, The Maya of Morgantown: Work and Community in the Nuevo New South (2003)
6. Hall, Like a Family: The Making of a Southern Cotton Mill World (1987)
7. Lambert, "If the Workers Took a Notion": The Right to Strike and American Political Development (2005)
8. Lichtenstein, State of the Union: A Century of American Labor (2002)
9. Minchin, Fighting Against the Odds: A History of Southern Labor Since World War II (2005)
10. Norwood, Strikebreaking and Intimidation: Mercenaries and Masculinity in Twentieth-Century America (2002)
11. Vargas, Labor Rights Are Civil Rights: Mexican American Workers in Twentieth-Century America (2005)
12. (not assigned, but I want to read it before the semester starts) Melvyn Dubofsky, Labor in America (any edition)

I will need #1-11 for the fall 2011 semester, August through December. I'm hoping to read #12 in July. I am very good to books and if you lent one to me, I would mail it back to you promptly at the end of the semester.
