Black & White & Green

Arcadia Publishing is a niche publisher. They compile historic photographs of towns and organizations, to save and spread local history. Their book Uptown Minneapolis--a collection of photographs of the neighborhood in the first half of the twentieth century--is a perennial M&Q bestseller, but we have a good range of their offerings.

Today from Publishers Weekly comes yet another reason to like the South Carolina house: Arcadia Publishing is now printing all of its titles on Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) paper, making it the first publisher of its size to be using FSC paper for all books." At 700 books a year, that's a very significant shift indeed. Details are here.--David E
