I understand that Mr. Orem did followups to his 1845-1881 book via individual volumes.

Having seen these at auction they're well beyond my price range but I wonder if anyone has catalogued them via PDF or eBook or anything...provided that they're public domain (I think they would be)?

Anyone know where someone might be able to read these...I haven't even been able to track them down in a library.

I don't know, but I love his two books - easily the most enjoyable baseball reads for me personally. Really stirs up some mental imagery of the times, and there's no modern perspective to cloud any of it.

Bumping this thread as well as another on same topic...it's been awhile, and I'm still looking for most of the later volumes detailed above.
