Hardy Books produced the GOLD RUSH BOOK FAIR of sainted memory. After several years, we turned it over to The Friends of The Nevada County Libraries. The Friends operated it for a few years and then decided to retire it. 

We maintain an eBay store at http://stores.ebay.com/Hardy-Books where we offer interesting material at attractive prices.
