Offering books detailing the history of the logging and turpentine industry in the Southeast United States.


SYP Publishing is dedicated to preserving the historical past.  The history of the Southeastern United States is rich and varied.  We feel it is essential that history be recorded before it is lost to future generations.  There are many pieces of southern culture, industry, lifestyle, and business that have not been fully recorded.  We are committed to documenting and recording those small pieces of history that make up the large tapestry of the historical south.  We currently represent books on the Naval Stores (Turpentine) Industry and the Logging and Sawmill Industries in the southeastern United States .  The history of these industries is an integral part of what has shaped the forestry industry of today.  Please look a little closer at the books we offer for detailed information.
