2004 · and the modern volume

Franklin Sheneman's Southern St. Joseph County exists twice, and LK-2's open question — whether the second listing was the first book reissued — is settled here: it is a second, distinct book. The publisher's own listings, read side by side, carry both. ISBN 9780738532929: Franklin N. Sheneman II, Southern St. Joseph County, in the Images of America series (2004) — "pioneer farmers first flocked to this area in the early 1830s… the towns of Lakeville, North Liberty, and Walkerton saw their genesis… over 200 vintage images… over 170 years of history"; the State Library files it at 977.201 S143sh, at IND REF. ISBN 9781467113809: the same title and author, in the Images of Modern America series — "The changing world of the 1960s forced adaptation upon southern St. Joseph County… By the decade's end, Studebaker had closed, and multigenerational family farms had been sold to accommodate the creation of Potato Creek State Park. The early 1980s brought… consolidating area schools to form the John Glenn School Corporation…" Not a print-on-demand re-ISBN, not a revision: a companion volume for the modern period, the 1960s through the 1980s on the publisher's own description. Gap G-LK2-13 closes at that strength. Its own date and extent were not reached in the listings read and bank as a residual gap, settler the publisher's full product page or the WorldCat record for the ISBN. (The State Library guide prints the author as "Franklin Sheneman" against the publisher's "Franklin N. Sheneman II"; both forms stand in the register.) The 2004 volume's two hundred vintage images stand in the image roll as reference candidates — a 2004 publication, in copyright, the underlying images' rights varying as captioned.
