Outskirts Press Announces Haints, the Latest Highly-Anticipated Ghost Book from Jamestown, KY Author Nash Black
Jamestown, KY, November 14, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Outskirts Press, Inc. has published Haints by Nash Black, which is the author’s most recent book to date. The 5.5 x 8.5 paperback in the Ghost category is available worldwide on book retailer websites such as Amazon and Barnes & Noble for a suggested retail price of $10.95. The webpage at www.outskirtspress.com/Haints was launched simultaneously with the book’s publication.
About the Book (Excerpts & Info)
Haints’ ghost stories are the legends and lore of the Cumberland Plateau. Using the Cumberland River, which winds its way through Brewster County as binding twine, Nash Black weaves yarns of the probable and the plausible. Scientific fact, recorded history, and ecological observation exist side by side with superstition, cultural folklore, and myths.
You will ask what is fact and what is fiction as each man tells his story according to his own understanding of the world of Haints. The stories are graphic examples of an oral tradition as old as the mountains of their origin when story telling was both an important means of passing on history and an evening’s entertainment.
”Wow, what a gripping, spell-binding collection.”
—Paula Vaccarino
”I read “Don’t Go There,” and truly think it is a fantastic story, as it sounds so realistic.”
—Dr. Lynwood Montell, Ghosts Along the Cumberland: Deathlore of the Kentucky Foothills, Kentucky’s Haunted Houses and Family Ghosts, and other collections.
Deftly constructed at 92 pages, Haints is being aggressively promoted to appropriate markets with a focus on the Ghost category. With U.S. wholesale distribution through Ingram and Baker & Taylor, and pervasive online availability through Amazon, Barnes & Noble and elsewhere, Haints meets consumer demand through both retail and library markets with a suggested retail price of $10.95.
