Hi, all:

I contact Diana Secker Tesdell at Vintage about this issue (she is behind
the new 100th anniversary edition of *My Ántonia*), and she said that the
Vintage *One of Ours* is neither out of print nor out of stock. She also
shared the proper ISBN: 9780679737445 and a link to the book (with a fairly
new cover) on Amazon:
https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.amazon.com_Ours-2DVintage-2DClassics-2DWilla-2DCather_dp_0679737448_ref-3Dsr-5F1-5F1-3Fs-3Dbooks-26ie-3DUTF8-26qid-3D1521668983-26sr-3D1-2D1&d=DwIFaQ&c=Cu5g146wZdoqVuKpTNsYHeFX_rg6kWhlkLF8Eft-wwo&r=1P1U_QmwwektPDtD1M1foXXGqUzLgygf16Nt7kNKpE0&m=cJOYGmHT-vR2UqJXlM-N-7JjSoMdRMZspcOuqUG8Asw&s=lHtLhG7-NBobGu8EVjo6_M7EoRn0wkC_3wpD9ASOL5g&e=


She noted that Amazon's practice of privileging the less expensive editions
can make Vintage paperbacks more difficult to find on that site.

Evelyn, hopefully this helps your bookstore make the order!

Best,
Andy
