An author is promoting remaining stock of a self-published history book, pitched as a gift for 'the discerning bookish history nerd'. The tome focuses on details other history books overlook, and copies are signed by hand with Sharpies. The appeal is timed to the holiday gift-buying season, with readers sharing and boosting the offer.
Why now: Gift season is driving authors and small publishers to promote niche, hand-signed books directly to readers.
