    I had to laugh at myself when I was looking for this particular book because the first place I looked for it is a shelf I don't often get too because it's in a room that has largely become storage. I was looking at the titles and thinking "Wow, I have some really nice books I didn't realize I had". About six months ago I built a set of shelves to cover an entire wall, 7' high by 9' wide and filled it with books I had stacked in piles around the house. I've attempted to organize it into categories and slowly move books around from other shelves but it has been a daunting task that does not progress rapidly. So far I've found close to a dozen books I had duplicates of. Most of my collection is military in nature. I also have fairly large sections on animals, cars/trucks/tractors/etc and non-military history like railroads and the "West". My office has books I check the most often. Nearly all are Gettysburg or firearm related. Bedroom is mostly non-military history, living room is encyclopedia type Time Life sets and high end aircraft. Upstairs hall is a mix of general military, den is cars/trucks and general military. Spare bedroom is where the majority are now, mostly all military and the attic is everything else. So long as I remember I actually have it, I can usually find a book in a few minutes which is odd considering where they all are. No one else could figure out my system but it seems to work for me.
