ALONDRA PRESS was founded in 2007 by Kathleen Palmer and Solomon Tager.  After a few aimless and unproductive months, the partners initiated their activities last year with the publication of Rio San Pedro, by Henry Hollenbaugh, a book which they selected mainly because of the unusual story it told, and its subtle environmental message.

This has now been followed by Island Journeys, Exploring the Legacy of France,  by Patti M. Marxsen, due for release in mid-March of 2008. In this book, the partners finally found every criterion that Alondra Press had established for itself.  Next, will be The Other Face of Murder, by doctor-author Gil Porat to be released in late March. Those three books will comprise the cornerstone for the works that will follow hereafter. The fact that we are a small press, with little bargaining power to acquire block-buster bestsellers does not mean we will take on anything in desperation. Our goal is to make the Alondra Press imprint one that will evoke an image of books of the highest quality.
