Slug Bread & Beheaded
Thistles
by Ellen Sandbeck
(originally published by her own De La Terre Press,
1995)
Author and illustrator Ellen Sandbeck came to X-Presso in
1995 with her collection of amusing and useful techniques
for nontoxic gardening and housekeeping. X-Presso took her
words and illustrations she had either drawn herself or borrowed
from public domain collections and executed an interior and
cover design to help her create Slug Bread & Beheaded
Thistles.
After achieving success selling the book on her own, Sandbeck
sold Slug Bread & Beheaded Thistles to Broadway
Books (a division of Random House, Inc.) in 2000. By 2001
it was already in its fourth printing.
