The books, however, remain available--distributor is
Independent
Publishers Group in Chicago.
I had a call a few weeks ago from the publisher, Hugh
Abramson, who
told me that they would be out of bankruptcy by the end of
the year,
and they plan to start publishing new books again in
1999.
IPL always had a fascinating line--primarily reprints of
otherwise
difficult to find books, such as those by Jonathan Latimer,
but also
some first edtions, including ones by E. Richard Johnson and
George
Baxt, and (hem) books edited by me (moi, qui vous parle,
as
hardboileders are wont to say).
