July/August 2025 Books Through Bars book drive:Working Out

The latest Freebird/Books Through Bars bundle campaign focuses on fitness, of the economic and physical varieties. 
​Help Books Through Bars stock up on guidebooks for building better bodies AND businesses.
$30 purchases an assortment of three titles (40% off retail)*

To round out the summer we return to topics that reflect the strong desire for self improvement while behind bars. Physical fitness is a constant request from the incarcerated, particularly in prisons with little to no outlet for exercise. You Are Your Own Gym is an all-gender guide to building muscle through only the resistance of one's own weight, especially where equipment is not an option. Mind Your Business--a popular title we have collected for in the past--is a comprehensive step-by-step overview of building a business from scratch. And DK's Project Management is a snappy and visually oriented guide to taking those endeavors to the next level, with lessons on how to focus that energy, manage change, and make an impact. ​*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.
