Books make great gifts, and so do CSA shares, but for a truly unique gift, you can give both. The Head and the Hand (THATH), publishers of The Rust Belt Rising Almanac, recently started a Community Supported Publishing (CSP) program. For just $50, members get five books and four chapbooks. “A CSP membership not only gives us a solid and secure budget for our planned editorial calendar, but it also allows us to make really well-crafted books for our readers and shareholders,” says THATH founder Nic Esposito. “The CSP allows THATH to treat its readers like a community and not just consumers.” Allow at least one week for shipping.
