I would like to order a copy but would prefer media mail shipping which is about $20 cheaper. Do you offer that?

Hi Bob! I can send you media mail from my house(verses direct from the publisher). It's a heavy book(big, hardcover, 400 pp.) but let me see if I can reduce shipping on the freddythebeard.com website. I think the e-commerce platform I use just estimated it. I'm not trying to make any money on shipping. I want to feed the people this goodness!!! You can just paypal/venmo me direct instead. I can be reached at cat@poolhustlersdaughter.com to discuss. Thanks and have a great day!!!

I just ordered and shipping was only $9 via the website.
 
Hi Cat and Everyone Else. I received my copy of the new Freddie/Cat Encyclopedia. It is awesome in every way. A lot of the pictures in the new version are now in color, and there is much new material and many new photos. If you liked the first one, this new one is even better. A round of snaps to Cat and I recommend everyone buy this great trove of pool history. This and Minnesota Fat's bio are the two best pool books ever.

Thank you SOOO much! This means the world to me! I'm SOOO glad that you love it as much as I do. It's still just Freddy's book with some supplementary items that just enhance his original book and, of course, honor my Dad, many magnificent others and the time period. THANK YOU!!!
