Ordering ...

... is simple: Just phone, fax, mail or e-mail jrbpels@hardscratchpress.com
and tell the editorial us which books you'd like.
There's a checklist at the end of this page.
But for more details, read on.

Inquiries and orders can be directed to Hardscratch Press at the addresses shown to the left: e-mail, regular mail, fax or phone. Be sure to include your mailing address and phone number.

We do not take credit cards, but we will pay the media mail shipping on prepaid orders, or we will include shipping costs on an invoice sent with your books. Prompt payment (by check or money order) is always appreciated. Prices include California sales tax for in-state orders; other state sales taxes do not apply.

Several of the books will come direct from the author, and you may want to request signed copies: Circuses & Sailing Ships; The Dragline Kid; Fin, Fur & Fiber; Miner, Preacher, Doctor, Teacher; The Morning Side of Mount Diablo and Historic Livermore, California: A-Z.

Ray Hudson has designed and signed a woodblock print bookplate for copies of Volume I of Family After All that are sent direct from Hardscratch Press, and I am happy to inscribe copies of Volume II of Family After All and Any Tonnage, Any Ocean as well. (If you catch Captain Jackinsky at the Fishing Hole in Homer during salmon season or elsewhere on his rounds -- the Ninilchik General Store is a possibility -- he will sign books for you, too, with gusto.)

We offer standard bookstore discounts and a 25% courtesy discount to libraries. As noted in the acknowledgments section of Any Tonnage, Any Ocean, "All our books are love letters to librarians." We simply couldn't do what we do without you.

Our books are also carried by two reputable distributors: Partners West in Renton, Wash., and Robert Hale & Co. in Bellevue, Wash.

Thank you.
