"End Notes" yield up such nuggets as "Dr. Fred and the Spanish Lady: Fighting the Killer Flu" 1918 Vancouver

Practically every book written, in its last pages, has a section called either "End Notes" or "Reference" to keep the reader abreast of from where quotes were taken for research in THE book.


Look at it this way, the book may be new, but the data at the back of the book is a GOLD mine of information just waiting to be re-discovered.   Those References, those End Notes, those Bibliographies, were written before the NEW book was even thought about, probably written before the Author was born.
