The number of catalogues printed during the heart of summer wanes, as both booksellers and their customers take off for vacation. This month, we received just seven new catalogues, which we review in Section Two.

There is a catalogue of travel works offered by Bernard J. Shapero Rare Books. Jeff Weber Rare Books presents rare medical and ophthalmology books. There is literature, film and sports from James Pepper Rare Books, nautical works from the Columbia Trading Company. Oak Knoll Books presents "books about books," while Back of Beyond Books focuses on the American Southwest and some notable authors. Finally, Michael Thompson Books offers, most appropriately, a summer miscellany.
