I got the idea for starting a series of little books from Bruce Rogers, having begun collecting some of the little jewels he had produced in his day. You can see that Excerpts from a Wisconsin Childhood borrows heavily from Roger's The Journal of Madam Knight, almost to the point of typographical plagiarism. Click images to enlarge

The Journal of Madam Knight

I was introduced by Suzanne McNear by a mutual friend, and she happened to have a short story the she wanted to see in book form. I read the manuscript, and I was delighted to make it the first title in the series. Suzanne McNear
