I feel legitimate. I retired from active duty classroom teaching a short while back and can now focus on my books. You can learn more about my legitimacy and motivations here, or just google my full name.

We are in the historic foothills of the Adirondack Mountains in upstate New York. Most titles ship from our fulfiller in Florida. Some ship from us.

We are the best kept secret in WWII titles, but you can ask. They can order individual copies, though it will probably involve a wait. Cheaper and faster here, direct from the author.

Nope, sorry. We do have a presence on Amazon, but for the most part you are paying full price there across multiple books.

It's up to you, but we do contribute to veterans outreach and Holocaust education on a monthly basis from our sales. We are like any other local, small business that could use your help against the behemoths.

Yes, of course. Just check the dropdown menu on each product page. Collectors love them.

The signed editions include a decorative bookplate that the author signs personally as a frontispiece, which our shipping partner then adheres inside the front cover. This is the same signature process used for readers who request one when the author cannot meet them in person.

Not fake autopen, ever. I sign every bookplate by hand.

Don't worry, we never include the price on any of the packages that we ship out.

There's no sexualized content, which some people seem really more concerned with, but of course there is discussion of the violence of war. You can expect some swearing in some of the more emotional discussions. I didn't censor the veterans; it's their own words, but nothing most kids have not overheard before.

Twelve? That's a little tender. I would say they are suitable for 14 and up, high school age, maybe 13 depending on maturity. They learn a lot. Former teacher here, and my students read them and interacted with these veterans.

Yes, we do, as a special savings package here. Or you can search Amazon for MATTHEW ROZELL BOOKS LARGE PRINT for single copies.

We also have audiobook bundles here and eBooks here, the font of which is easily adjusted.

No. The best we can do is usually ship out in a few days, usually USPS Ground Advantage, which carries insurance.

Holiday time shipping estimates sometimes can be hard to meet, when we are getting several hundred orders a day, so please order early if you need it in a hurry. Read the shipping info here.

No, sorry. Due to rising costs and unreliable delivery, we cannot ship internationally. Try your local Amazon store.

Email us with the order number please, and we can let you know if it shipped or is in transit. Bonus points for reading the shipping info here.

Within the two-week window to begin this process, please email us a request. We will send you a shipping label and deduct the cost from your return, less the irreversible 3 percent bank transaction fees and up to 10 percent restocking and re-handling inventory control charge when we recover and inspect the books.

Digital products are unrecoverable by us and not returnable, but we can work with you if you ordered the wrong item and would like an exchange. Read more about the terms and returns policy here.

If you have any problems with downloads, first check your spam or promotions email folders for BookFunnel. It is sent immediately, and the links are good for two weeks.

Write to us with the order number if you need the link refreshed. You can also write to help@bookfunnel.com; they are really helpful and responsive.

There is a sign up box on the homepage near the bottom. Most of our people want to know about new books, pre-order info, exclusive discounts and so on. When you sign up for the Matthew Rozell Books newsletter you can opt out at any time.
