Charles,
Charles this was initiated by Caldwell Industries in Luling Texas and
began with Vol 1 No 1. The first few years were reprinted and then they
began jumping around in years, with no rhyme or reason in volume choice, so
that the continuity was broken. I believe in all maybe 14 volumes were
reprinted before the project collapsed. The owner of Caldwell apparently
became a "survivlist" and began offering MRE's, canned water, and books on
how to build a machine gun and survive the coming race war instead of
Stuart kits and steam oil and the business soon collapsed.

Harry
