The Independent Book Publishers Association announced the Benjamin Franklin Book Awards Tuesday night on the eve of the BookExpo in New York City. Stephen Azzato’s book Their Love of Music won for Best Cover Design – Large Format Books. The Ben Franklin Awards are some of the most prestigious awards in publishing, especially for the independent publishers. The Independent Book Publishers Association is the largest association representing independent publishers.
This marks the second year in a row which Quiet Light Publishing has won this award. In 2010 we won for Richard Mack’s Great Smoky Mountains National Park: Thirty Years of American Landscapes in the same category. This is our 4th Ben Franklin Book Award as The Lewis & Clark Trail American Landscapes book was a 2006 Silver Medalist for Best Coffee Table Book and for Best Nature Book.
Congratulations to Stephen Azzato and to our designer Rich Nickel of Rich Nickel Design!
Remember – You can purchase all three books at your favorite bookseller or online at the Quiet Light Publishing website and each book will be autographed by the photographer!
