As most of you know I didn't grow up in Laurelton...I'm a Far Rock resident....so when this offer arrived I thought I would pass it on to you.  If you are interested, please contact the publisher.  Good Luck!

Dear Mr. Weinstock,

I hope you are doing well. My name is Erin Vosgien, and I am the editor of New York City titles for Arcadia Publishing. I am currently searching for local historians and community groups in the city who may be interested in authoring titles for our 2010 list of projects. I recently came across your Web site, and I am curious as to whether you may have an interest in authoring a book on Laurelton.

Arcadia Publishing is North America’s leading publisher of local and regional history. Since 1993, we have been partnering with historical societies and locally-connected individuals to create accessible and affordable photographic histories. Our mission is to make local history available to everyone, reunite people with their past, and celebrate the faces and places that give America its spirit and life.

As a trade publisher, Arcadia finances every stage of publishing, from book production to sales and marketing support. Authors do not pay for the publication of a book in any way beyond the submission of a completed manuscript. Arcadia pays royalties based on the net profits of book sales and offers authors and organizations the option of purchasing books at a deep discount for fund-raising purposes.

I would be happy to send you additional information about Arcadia and our publishing process. I also encourage you to visit our Web site, www.arcadiapublishing.com, to explore the latest additions to Arcadia’s growing catalog and learn more about the company’s development and direction.

Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions you may have. I look forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,

Erin L. Vosgien
