Doubleback Books A project of Sundress Publications (see other related projects). About We believe that out of print should not mean out of mind. Although other publishers rescue works that have fallen into the public domain from obscurity, few reprint books from small, independent presses that have folded during the twenty-first century and (often through no fault of their own) left new, exciting books to go out of print before their time. Important: To be eligible, works must have been both published and out of print by no earlier than 2000. Want more insight into the affiliated editors' preferences?
