A New Chapter for Michaelmas Press

Happy New Year and welcome to our new website!  We’re excited about all the features, the new look, and hope you will be, too. What’s New?

Expanded Bookstore

We have been busy for the past three years and have new titles to introduce!  For those interested in the power of the poet or 19th century literature and history, we’ve added a book and booklets on the life and legacy of Quaker, John Greenleaf Whittier.

Whittier was a renowned and revered 19th century poet, editor, politician and ardent abolitionist. Anyone preparing teaching blocks about the Abolitionist Movement, the Civil War, and 19th century literature or is interested in these subjects will find these invaluable resources. We’ll be adding more teacher resources in the coming months.

How did we venture into the history genre?  Read all about it in Our Story.

Blog

Our new web site offers an opportunity for me to have a blog, called “Pam’s Perspectives”, a column where I can share works in progress, introduce interesting or inspiring books I’ve discovered, as well as reflect on topics related to this web site. I also look forward to using this space to inform you of events, circumstances, or issues that arise from time to time.

Photo Albums

There was a time when my youngest daughter’s classmates gave me this moniker, “Mrs. Camera.”  Her teacher had asked me to take photographs during special class events, rehearsals of their annual dramas, etc. I’ve had an interest in photography for years and will be posting pictures we hope will interest you in “Photo Albums.”

The earliest group are pictures taken in the early childhood classrooms at the Pittsburgh, PA Waldorf school. The pictures of dolls was taken at a Waldorf teachers’ conference.  The next group of photos were taken at trade shows where Michaelmas Press has been represented.  The most recent photos are related to John Greenleaf Whittier, the subject of my most recent title.

Links and Resources

Every web site needs to have links to important organizations or places which will offer some extra information. Some visitors to our site may be unfamiliar with Waldorf (Steiner) Education or the subjects of our history titles and don’t know which book to read first.

You may search on the internet, but which sites offer reliable or accurate information? While we hope you will go to our bookstore and review our own titles, we’ve included links to web sites we consider the most appropriate resources.

Thank you for visiting our site. Please return often.
