Highlight of my Cyber Monday:

Spotting a title published by @oupress.bsky.social in 1973 turned face-out at Full Circle Books.

"The Secret of Sherwood Forest" is a true story from World War II of Oklahoma roughnecks that helped England jumpstart an oil field desperately needed for the war effort.

One reason I love staffing the @oupress.bsky.social booth at exhibits:

You can witness a passerby 30 feet away stop, pivot, point, and say, "I LOVED THAT BOOK."

Proud to be showing off the "Teaching, Engaging, and Thriving in Higher Ed" series at #POD25!

Here is a fascinating interview from the CBC in Canada with @monikam13.bsky.social, author of "The Monarch Butterfly Migration: Its Rise and Fall" from @oupress.bsky.social.

It is also a good example of how university press books are often the news that stays news.

Monarch butterflies are late arriving in Texas during fall migration
