Amerikansk leksikon fra 1965
Som forventeligt af et 29-binds leksikon er der en del artikler, der er vældigt grundige. Bind 30 er et index-bind, som forsøger at løse problemet med fx at finde ud af at der står noget om "guld" under opslaget om Ghana. Kortmaterialet er også fremhævet som nydeligt og grundigt.
I dette bind er der grundige opslag om India, American Indians, Indiana, Indonesia, Industrial Engineering, Industrial Terms, Innocent, Inquisition, Insurance Terms, Internal Combustion Engine, Inventions, Ireland, Iron, Italy, Japan.

Under American Indians finder man en del billeder af malerier af en Winold Reiss, men faktisk ser det ud til at indianerne syntes godt om billederne, så det er måske ok? Vi finder lidt om paverne med navn Innocent, lige inden afsnittet om Inquisition. Jakobshavn i Grønland er navngivet efter Jakob Severin.

Der er snydt lidt med sidetal, så fx side 26 efterfølges af side 26a, 26b osv op til 26z.
Ekstra sider: 26a-z, 27a-z, 28a-n, 90a-b, 130a-b, 165a-f, 263a-d, 287a-d, 377a-z, 414a-L, 424a-j, 569a-b.

Pudsigt amerikanskorienteret leksikon fra starten af 1960'erne. Noget mere orienteret mod ingeniører og læger end mod videnskabsfolk og matematikere ( )
