Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Published in 1930 by the American Book Company, Fact and Story Readers: Book Three is part of a widely used progressive-era elementary reading series designed to blend factual instruction with narrative storytelling. Edited by leading American educators, including Henry Suzzallo, former president of the University of Washington, the volume reflects early 20th-century educational priorities emphasizing literacy, citizenship, and moral development. The book is richly illustrated throughout, with color plates and vignettes by multiple artists, making it a visually engaging classroom artifact. This copy bears documented institutional provenance from the Extension - Ames, Iowa Public Library, preserved with remarkable completeness. Laid in and affixed materials include the original borrower slip, recording circulation dates from May 2, 1940 through April 22, 1943, as well as an acquisition date neatly penciled in the front flyleaf gutter: '4/30/40.' These markings anchor the book precisely within its historical moment and reflect its active use during the World War II era. Adding further human interest is a handwritten scoring or tabulation sheet on the rear endpaper, listing the names Robert, Pam, and Craig, likely tracking a household or classroom game. Rather than detracting, these inscriptions enhance the book's narrative as a lived educational object - used, shared, and engaged with across multiple years. The result is a compelling survivor of American public-library and school-extension culture. Conditionally, the volume remains solid and serviceable. The binding is intact and secure, with expected shelf wear to the cloth. Moisture staining is present, primarily affecting margins and gutters, consistent with long-term institutional storage; text and illustrations remain fully legible throughout. No loose pages or structural failures are present, making this an appealing copy for collectors of schoolbooks, library history, or Americana. E.O. Eadie, L. Dotterer, and Others (illustrator).…
