First New Releases of 2010

Congratulations to authors Jason Rothstein (Carless in Chicago) and Sean Parnell (Historic Bars of Chicago) on the arrival of their new books last week!

Both are well-conceived, well-researched, well-written, and fun guidebooks ready for jumpstarting your summer exploring schedule. They also embody several elements of our Lake Claremont Press mission: to help readers better navigate and enjoy the city around them; to support the local economy and local businesses; to address current issues facing our city; to preserve our history; to cultivate Chicago identity and culture; and to share insider perspectives.

Order their books by phone, fax, mail, email, and through our website. Our discounts for individuals start when you purchase two or more copies. All of our titles are also available through Amazon.com and other online retailers, as well as in dozens of bookstores, gift shops, museum stores, and specialty shops across the Chicagoland area. Please inquire about retail and wholesale discounts.

And...ask for these titles at your local library!
