We no longer sell books directly from this site, but rest assured that Jerry’s books are available at bookstores everywhere. We especially hope you’ll support independent bookstores. We realize not everyone has access to them, but if you do or if you’re traveling in their vicinity, we hope you’ll give them your business. To learn more about Jerry Dennis’s and Glenn Wolff’s commitment to publishing fine books for indie stores (and to see their limited edition art and letterpress projects) visit Big Maple Press. Some of our books and all of the art can be purchased from that site.
