Freebird's July 2023 book drive for Books Through Bars looks to the skies and under the hood

July's book bundle for incarcerated readers are all about planes, trains, automobiles...and zeppelins
$30 purchases three books (45% off retail)* 

Following our campaign (collecting 204 books!) that focused on game play and honing thought and strategy, we hit on a transportation theme. A steady subset of requests amongst incarcerated readers are manuals for learning a trade. And especially as they relate to cars. Here we include a beginners guide on Auto Repair and Maintenance to inspire those budding mechanics. On the aeronautics side, Empires of the Sky tells the dramatic story of the early 20th century battle between airships and airplanes for dominance in international travel (concluding with the fiery crash of the Hindenburg). And we round these out with a title from the Draw 50 series--art instruction remains one of the most in-demand topics--featuring how to draw other vehicular conveyances: trains, ships, and fighter planes.  

*Each purchased bundle will be delivered directly to Books Through Bars so that they can fulfill requests from incarcerated readers.  If you wish to purchase one of these titles for yourself, you can go to https://bookshop.org/shop/FreebirdBooks.
