[Genealib] Publishers for genealogy material

[Dunn, Lesle]

Hi,
The 3 best around here (Pittsburgh) are:
Craig Scott and Willow Bend, Mechling Bookbindery, and Closson Press. All have a web site. 
All 3 produce a good quality publication.

Hi-

 

I have a genealogy patron who is looking to publish a book but is not sure how to go about accomplishing this. He has a wonderful collection of letters that he would like to have put into a book. These letters were sent to his grandmother from her siblings and other relatives, and they really cover a slice of American life from a certain time period. One person fought in the Civil War, another had an encounter with John Wilkes Booth before Lincoln's assassination, still another wrote from the fields of the gold rush. That's just to give you an idea of what he has and to illustrate that it's not a genealogy or family history that he wants to publish, but something of interest to his relatives and possibly historians as well. 

Any ideas about who I should send him to? 

Thanks for your input!
