Golden delicious is the first Chax Press book & the first by Charles Alexander (formerly with the no longer existent Black Mesa Press) to be entirely made in Tucson ... So there are special thanks to Nancy Metcalf, Pamela Moore, Leslie Marmon Silko, Ann Kingsburry, Karl Gartung, & Meryle Alexander, for provinding various & delicious joys & helps during the making of Golden delicious; & to Wendy Osterweil, for opening my eyes & ears with her linoleum cuts & talk about the manuscript; and to Paul Metcalf, for making it possible. In an edition limited to 150 copies, this particular copy is number 8.
