Self Publishing | Cedar Tree Books

Delaware's Local Publishing House

Many interesting manuscripts do not fit the need of any publisher for a variety of reasons. Primarily this is due to the limited area of interest that many well written and well researched topics have. After all, a publisher has to have a reasonable expectation of sufficient sales to cover his expenses. Books that do not meet a publisher's requirements are very often excellent candidates for self-publishing.

Cedar Tree Books has assisted many authors in self-publishing their works. We can provide assistance in editing in varying degrees, in layout and design and in all aspects of production. We also offer fulfillment and distribution services and can provide storage for your books.

Should you wish to persue this option please feel free to call us.

Quote of the day

A book is a part of life, a manifestation of life, just as much as a tree or a horse or a star. It obeys its own rhythms, its own laws, whether it be a novel, a play, or a diary. The deep, hidden rhythm of life is always there-that of the pulse, the heart beat.
Henry Miller

For books are more than books, they are the life The very heart and core of ages past, The reason why men lived and worked and died, The essence and quintessence of their lives.
Amy Lowell

The oldest books are still only just out to those who have not read them.
Samuel Butler

Books are the bees which carry the quickening pollen from one to another mind.
James Russell Lowell

O, let my books be then the eloquence and dumb presagers of my speaking breast.
William Shakespeare

I know every book of mine by its smell, and I have but to put my nose between the pages to be reminded of all sorts of things.
George Gissing

A good book is the best of friends, the same today and for ever.
Martin Tupper

A book is like a man-clever and dull, brave and cowardly, beautiful and ugly. For every flowering thought there will be a page like a wet and mangy mongrel, and for every looping flight a tap on the wing and a reminder that wax cannot hold the feathers firm too near the sun.
John Steinbeck

The good of a book lies in its being read. A book is made up of signs that speak of other signs, which in their turn speak of things. Without an eye to read them, a book contains signs that produce no concepts; therefore it is dumb.
Umberto Eco

There is no frigate like a book to take us lands away nor any coursers like a page of prancing poetry.
Emily Dickinson
