Gordon Press claimed to publish only 2535 titles. Many of the entries removed from their listings came from the years 1986-1989; so much so that for those four years Gordon Press lists approximately 10 to 20 titles -- total ...for four years. Consequently, some titles mentioned in this report are not listed in post 1998 versions of Global Books In Print. You may still view those old records by examining a Books In Print Plus CD ROM from that time period, up to 1998. You should be able to locate such a CD in the collection of a large research library. Even so, you will find similar titles scattered through-out various years in current editions of Global Books In Print.

When using the December 2000 Global BIP to trace Gordon Press from 1988 back to the early 1970's, it is interesting to note that the ISBNs for listed titles merge with those of Revisionist Press and job function email list other publishers. It may be worth-while taking a closer look at those other publishers; perhaps, they may somehow be associated with Gordon Press -- end update) Gordon Press removed the descriptor "adult" from their code, and cut back on distorting titles and the inappropriate use of author names, as was their common practice in 1986. Most likely these changes were a result of legal battles. They modified the formula format so as not to be obvious; the one price of $79.95 would no longer fit all books. A new price did, however, come into vogue: $250.95; it became increasingly common-place to find books, or multi-volume sets, advertised for $600.95, $900.95, $1,899.95 and more. But what did not change was their emphasis on survivalist and militia type subjects.

They began specializing in titles commanding unbelievably high prices. Take for example Light List: location and characteristics of lights, fog signals, 7 volumes, 06/97, US$4,299.95. Gordon Press picked up its profile by appealing to an international audience through Global Books in Print. Suddenly in 1998, Gordon Press entered only four new titles into their 6,700+ listings, when usually they would add a few hundred titles every year. All four books had to do with leadership, particularly military leadership strategy. But why so few new books? Revisionist Press listed nothing more current than 1991 among its claimed publications. Never-the-less, they boosted prices for their old titles to match the pricing schedule of Gordon Press.
