Coming Soon…Redux

As the publication date of May 27, 2019 draws near for Garden of the Gods Trading Post...


...the marketing has kicked into gear. It’s an exciting time, and Arcadia Publishing has already sent more promotional material than we received from our two previous publishers.


The first package to arrive without warning was full of posters, fliers, bookmarks, and Autographed Copy stickers.


Followed shortly by our first six comp copies and a stack of postcards, received a full two months prior to pub date. The most gratifying time for any author is the day their efforts are rewarded with holding the first copy of their finished book. And so it is for us, we are very pleased with how the book turned out, and especially delighted with the cover as it honors Navajo silversmith William Goodluck and his family.

Equally exciting is our inaugural signing event in June with Garden of the Gods Trading Post to commemorate the trading post’s 90th anniversary; and we have begun coordinating the event with management.


The Images of America series is published in black-and-white so keep an eye out for future blogs focusing on the more colorful aspects of Charles Strausenback’s story including his art work, the murals on the walls of the Trading Post and the jewelry made by the Native American silversmiths who worked there.

We look forward to seeing you at one of the signing events in the works for the coming months.
