I know Calvin Duncan very well. We were both Inmate Counsels (read “jailhouse lawyers) I was proud to work with him, and even prouder to see what he has done with his hard-earned freedom and the life that followed. Can’t wait to read his book!

I ordered 3 books of Journey of a Jailhouse Lawyer but I did not get them from Penguin Press as stated in your email. I got them from Porchlight Press, my bag. Somehow, I had a lapse of memory when I ordered. Sorry that a free book won't go the prison system.

You did it right - the orders can come from anywhere, Porchlight is good. Just send a photo or scan of your sales receipt to books@calvinduncan.com and it will count!!!

Thank you for the support. I really do appreciate it 🙏🏿

I had already pre-ordered the Kindle edition, so I went ahead and ordered 3 hardcovers. I bought them from Baldwin Books, which is a wonderful, Black-owned bookstore that really helps power the local community. Even better, it’s online orders go through bookstore.org, which helps support local bookstores across the country.

I’ll send Marly my receipt!
