Barky Fingers: Nonfiction of the American West, Mexico, Texas

So doth the woodbine the sweet honeysuckle
Gently entwist; the female ivy so
Enrings the barky fingers of the elm.
—William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night’s Dream

Olmos is the Spanish word for elm, hence we take Shakespeare’s imagery for the name of this Olmos Park Press imprint, which offers titles rooted in fact.
