Dr. C.J. Alvarez of the UT Press Faculty Advisory Committee shares what it's been like to have his award-winning book Border Land Border Water published and read, locally and globally.

We’re asking our friends and community to help champion our work in this year’s 40 Hours for the Forty Acres fundraiser. Support first time authors with your donation! Give here: https://40for40.utexas.edu/giving-day...

What We're Fundraising For
======================

When you donate to UTP, your dollars will directly support first-time authors in the publishing process. Authors face a range of expenses on the road to publication, from the licensing of illustrations to the creation of an index and other key parts of a book. First-time authors typically have access to fewer institutional sources of support. By supporting the scholars who write books and journal articles, your generosity helps the University of Texas Press reach a broad audience of readers and researchers around the world.

Your Impact
==========

Your donation supports the ongoing work of the University of Texas Press on the 40 Acres and far beyond. Our books and journals programs offer the foundational research and analysis used by policymakers, opinion leaders, journalists, researchers, and influential writers and commentators, and we make this research—generated by university faculty and scholars outside the academy—available to the broader public. The publications of the University of Texas Press truly change the world.
