I just came across a book via the Google digitized database that at first did not seem that spectacular until I started going through it. It is USDA Bulletin #104 from 1911 and contains two separate titles within. The first is 'The Fig Moth' by Frank Hurlbut Chittenden and the second is 'Report on the Fig Moth in Smyrna.'

It is the second book within this publication that is suddenly very interesting. What is contained in this section are some incredible pictures that document the fig industry in Smyrna (Asia Minor, now Turkey). The fig moth, which is the main topic, might be interesting, but these photos are unlike any others that I remember seeing from other publications (there are more photos here). There are photographs of gigantic piles of dried figs, orchards, drying mats, early fig transportation, workers, processing facilities, etc.

From this link you can either click on "read the book" or just download the pdf.

Fascinating pictures and history.

The information is not accessible at the moment. Google tends to change what book you can read. At some point it should return...

It downloaded for me. I will add it as Link No 392 when I get a chance.

I also can't download it directly from Google -- all I get is one page describing the book, but not the book itself.  I understand that Google looks at the computer's IP address and shows/hides info depending on which country you're in.  If the computer address is in the USA, you can see many more things than the rest of us; Google's scanning agreements with the university libraries and with publishers make many items only available to USA addresses.  :-(

tettix2009 makes a good point
I also made a snapshot of it

the only way for people outside the U.S. is to use a PROXY bases in the States...
