Whistler's Daughter Books

Heads up: Book review takes 2-4 weeks; no reply means no. For art, no reply within 15 days means no. The art side is a short-term display program, so the books side is the main channel. Review copies are not returned.

Ferndale independent bookstore with family ties to the artist behind 'Whistler's Mother'; it shows and sells local art.
