The following books from the library of Robert Spiess, longtime editor of Modern Haiku, are being offered for sale to benefit Modern Haiku. They were donated by Lee Gurga, former editor of Modern Haiku. The books were gifts to Lee from Bob Spiess, and some bear Bob's signature and/or his chopmark. Lee will donate all proceeds to Modern Haiku.
Please note: There is only one copy of each book available, so sales will be first come, first served. You may reserve any book you plan to purchase by notifying Billie Wilson by e-mail (akwilsons@gci.net) that you intend to purchase the book(s). She will hold the book(s) in your name for 10 days. If your check, money order, or cashier's check is not received within that time, the book(s) will be sold to the next person who expressed interest.
All prices are in U.S. funds, postpaid if shipped to a U.S. address. If you are ordering from outside the U.S., please add $8.
If ordering more than one book, contact Billie (akwilsons@gci.net) for a recomputation of postage due (it will be less than if ordering only one book).
Please make your check, money order, or cashier's check payable in U.S. funds to Modern Haiku. Send your payment to:
