This is such great news. Thank you Jim for sharing this and doing the work to offer bulk orders to libraries. If you haven¹t had Teresa at your library to share the story of her father, I must encourage you to call her today and get your library on her schedule. Her presentation goes beyond just telling her fathers story. It is truly a story that will amplify your appreciation to the Greatest Generation, and all generations of our veterans who have given so much for all of us. I know that I am a better person for hearing the story of Bud¹s life. I know you will not be disappointed. Call her today (734) 502-4577 Your community will thank you! Sheila Sheila M.

All,
In appreciation of the support of Michigan libraries (nearly 100 library events since April 2012), and in advance of Veterans Day programs and activities, Michigan-based ATLH Publications is offering libraries a 40% discount off the list price of A Thousand Letters Home by author Teresa Irish. The book was named Reviewer¹s Choice by Midwest Book Review, recognized by Writer¹s Digest Self-Published Book Awards, and placed on the recommended reading list of the Military Writers Society of America. The book¹s introduction, letter excerpts, photo gallery, and reviews are available at http://www.athousandlettershome.com/. Library bulk-order pricing: hardcover $18 and softcover $13.20.
Books will be shipped and invoiced to TLN, and delivered via either TLN or RIDES delivery. Please provide your RIDES delivery number.
Please send us your orders by no later than Friday, August 7, 2015.
Now and then I pull out my father's collection of WWII letters that he wrote and sent home to my grandmother. He could never say where he was (island hopping through the South Pacific) or what he was doing (loose lips sink ships). I've not read the ATLH book, but I suspect it is similar to what my father sent home. The Greatest Generation is quickly slipping away, so these memoirs are becoming increasingly important.
Again, please send us your orders by no later than Friday, August 7, 2015.
Thanks.
Jim
