New on the LOA website: Boxing in literature, James Fenimore Cooper

  • Recently listed by the popular blog The Millions as one of the most anticipated titles for 2011, At the Fights: American Writers on Boxing has just arrived from the printer. The contents of the 500-page volume have been posted and can be found here. This new anthology is available now for immediate shipment from the LOA Web Store and will be available in bookstores on March 3.
  • We’ve just posted a PDF version of Winter 2010-2011 Library of America Newsletter. The issue recaps the LOA’s fall list and recent reviews of last year’s titles and notes some major donations recently granted to The Library of America to support its mission.
  • For reasons known only to the mysterious overlords of publishing, recent sales of The Library of America's two-volume edition of James Fenimore Cooper’s The Leatherstocking Tales (The Last of the Mohicans, The Prairie, and three other novels) have spiked dramatically, and we've had to go back to press for a rush reprint. Although the first volume is currently out of stock at most retailers until next month, you can still get the set at the LOA Web Store for 25% off.
