Are there any offline or offline references to look up what USPS international postage rates were in effect at a particular point in time, including rates by destination, class, weight, letter vs. postcard, etc.?

I have found a few resources for historic DOMESTIC letter rates, but nothing on international rates.

Specifically, I'm wanting to know what the rates were for letters sent to foreign destinations in 1898.

Thanks.

Google "United States Official Postal Guide, United States, Post Office Dept. January 1, 1900." I didn't find a copy from 1898.
