In 1987-89, a group of Nabors led by founder Sam Ridlen teamed up to compile a complete Nabor House history for its 50th anniversary celebration in 1989. The results was a 209-page history published as "An Idea and An Ideal: Nabor House Fraternity 1939-1989," by Sam Ridlen. Below is the index of that book.
