Rescue Press is an editor-run small press founded in the winter of 2009 in Milwaukee, halfway between Woodland Pattern Book Center and Lake Michigan. Currently based in Iowa City, Chicago, and Cleveland, with national distribution and readership, Rescue Press values experimentation, conversation, care, and idiosyncrasy.
Presented as part of Small Press Appreciation, an ongoing series celebrating small-press culture and the groundbreaking role independent publishers play in making space for new writers and literatures.
