My name is Orland French, the Friesens History Book Agent for Ontario. I am pleased to offer the same Friesens history book program which has been highly successful in Western Canada for years. That service, unique to Friesens, provides an experienced history book consultant to assist book committees and individuals in publishing their history books.

I am an experienced journalist and writer with an extensive background in daily newspapers, journalism schools and community history book publication.

I have worked with community and corporate history book committees and individuals, assisting them by providing:

• Advice on organizing a committee
• Tips on researching and writing histories
• Assistance on collecting and choosing pictures
• Information on pricing
• Help with marketing and fund-raising promotions
• Support for publishers using a computer to prepare copy
• Experience in desktop publishing, using QuarkXPress and Adobe Photoshop

If you or someone in your community is thinking of publishing a history book, I can be your guide through every step of the process.
