The Positives 3
The third in a series of photo books by Davis, California educator Neil Hollander, The Positives 3 showcases photographs taken by young photographers in California.
Here, a member of a photography forum comments on The Positives 3:
The Positives 3, boy, what a joy to look at these photos. Looking at the pictures give meaning and visual to the stories you had told in this mailing list. And what a perfect cover picture to set the tone of the book.
To me these pictures allow me to experience your stories as if I am there with you guys. It helps me feel the atmosphere, the kids, surroundings, mood, etc. Thank you so much for your effort and dedication on helping these kids and letting them learn as well as have fun.
Cheers,
Berhen
The Adventures of Charlie Pierce: The Last Egret
Now Available!
The Adventures of Charlie Pierce: The Last Egret, by Harvey E. Oyer III, now available!
During the late 19th Century, the fashion rage throughout America and Europe was colorful bird feathers to adorn people’s hats and clothing. Hunters killed millions of birds in the Florida Everglades to supply the booming trade in feathers. As teenagers, Charlie Pierce and his friends traveled deep into the unexplored Florida Everglades to hunt plume birds for their feathers. They never imagined the challenges they would encounter, what they would learn about themselves, and how they would contribute to American history.
Author Harvey E. Oyer III tells a compelling tale of pioneer Florida in this, his second of a series of books based on the stories of his great great uncle, Charlie Pierce. For ordering information, go to: theadventuresofcharliepierce.com

We are here to help you publish your book. Whatever you need, we have the resources to make your book the best it can be.
Why would I choose Middle River Press to publish my book?
We are publishers, not an online book factory. There are many authors out there that want help in making their stories, photographs, poetry collections, or whatever they are working on the best it can be. We publish books that are professionally designed and edited. All our quotes include everything, except shipping which can't be determined until the books are printed. We don't charge extra for design, we don't use templates and we work with each author individually. We can also offer print on demand printing, but as you know that just ends up being one very expensive book. We specialize in short runs.
Are you an author that needs help in the multi-faceted process of publishing your book? Do you need a copy editor, a designer, an illustrator or a technical guru to help you format your files for publication? Do you need someone to type your hand written manuscript? Middle River Press can provide all those services. If you are looking for the next step in traditional publishing, or learning about custom publishing, contact us. We can help.
