Cissie
Me Bandy, You Cissie is the latest volume that has been republished, in June 2009. Me Bandy, You Cissie is a winner of the Stephen Leacock award for humour, and the latest edition includes a bonus feature: Donald Jack's radio play Banner's Headline, published here for the first time.

Bandy Article
If you didn't catch my article "Bartholomew W. Bandy: From Pilot to General, and Back Again" in Airforce magazine in the Fall of 2006, you can read it for free on Shortcovers. The article is about how we got the final volume of the series (Stalin vs Me) into print, and some background on Donald Jack and the Bandy series.

Airforce Magazine Article

"Bartholomew W. Bandy: From Pilot to General, and Back Again", an article about the Bandy series, and Donald Jack, was published in the Fall 2006 issue of Airforce magazine, Canada's foremost aviation and aerospace magazine. Check it out for more background on Bandy's creator, as well as the story of Stalin Versus Me, the Bandy book that almost didn't get published.



Hitler Versus Me
   Good news! We've published a paperback edition of the 1996 Bandy novel Hitler Versus Me, which has only ever been released in hardcover. Copies of the hc had become difficult to obtain, and are very expensive on the used-book market, so this will be a chance for many Bandy fans to read Hitler Versus Me for the first time, and to meet that most alarming product of Bandy's long career: his son! Hitler Versus Me was published August 2006, and is now available.

Stalin Versus Me
   As many of you may be aware, Donald Jack worked on a sequel to Hitler vs Me, which was to be entitled Stalin vs Me. Unfortunately, after his death in 2003, publication of most of the volumes in the Bandy Papers series was cancelled, and it looked as though Stalin vs Me, the final volume of the Bandy Papers, would never make it to print. After inquiring into the status of the manuscript we found that a complete draft of the book exists. Our offer to publish the manuscript was accepted by Mr Jack's literary estate, and now Stalin vs Me is currently available through retailers (see the Stalin page for a partial listing).
