DOUBLE EDGE PRESS
PRESS RELEASE
3/5/07

Double Edge Press, a Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania publishing company is announcing the release of their newest title: Ceilidh’s Quest by Gail MacMillan. 

Gail MacMillan is a New Brunswick, Canada native and a two time Dog Writer’s Association of America Maxwell Award winner for previous works. Ceilidh’s Quest is her fifteenth published book.

Ceilidh’s Quest is a heart-warming non-fiction story that introduces the reader to a little known but highly specialized breed of dog, the Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever, uniquely developed in Nova Scotia, Canada.

Ceilidh comes into Gail MacMillan’s possession at the age of three and although she is devoted to her new family, her loyalties are still true for her previous owner. She will spend her entire life seeking him, the one that is ‘lost’. 

Gail MacMillan’s award winning style of writing is evident as she easily moves from the hilarious to the heart-felt in this true-life portrayal of the adventures and mis-adventures of a brave little dog looking to make her little world complete. 

Double Edge Press is a small, highly elite press that releases on average only five books a year, both fiction and non-fiction. Their logo is: Extraordinary Stories. Extraordinary Writing. In addition to this criteria, their titles are Christian friendly books operating on the premise that any story that does not acknowledge the spiritual searching of a being is an incomplete portrayal and is, in essence, cheating the reader of the full story. Rebecca Melvin of Double Edge Press says of Ceilidh’s Quest, “I think Ceilidh’s Quest is an excellent addition to our catalog. We’re not looking to put out a ‘message’. What we are looking for, and what Gail MacMillan amply provides, is that sense that there is much more going on behind the scenes than our own workings and actions. That there is a Being that ties all things together in the end. Even in the life of a dog.” 

Ceildih’s Quest is available for order through all major book-stores. It is also available on-line at Amazon.com and through the publisher web-site: doubleedgepress.com.
