Backstory: The Dement Booklet

In 1800 William Dement moved west from an increasingly hectic and crowded Maryland, across the Ohio River, into Monroe County where he became a first settler and Justice of the Peace. The growing US Federal government had regulations for that post, one requiring him to keep a log of all matters he adjudicated. That 100 page book became both a private and public record. When William's son Samuel caught Oregon Fever and took his family west in 1851 the booklet came along, as treasured and important as his violin, his anvil and his house cat. This Dement Booklet remains a treasure kept now in safe deposit. This book reproduces significant portions of that booklet and explores in exciting detail 1,000 years of backstory. ROUNDUP 2012 depicts current best practices. A companion publication replicates each entry in the booklet. It is intended for the research library and historian or student.

The large 11 by 14 Wire-O Matte Softcover is suitable for laying flat on a table and for display. The hardcover versions work well for those of us who like to hold a book in our hands. The Premium Photo Paper is archival, acid free and outstanding in quality and durability. Photosilk is almost as good, adequate for most readers. Signed versions (by the author and or by Sam Dement) can be arranged with stevenmeans@me.com
