Classic Publications

I just visited Ian Allan's website to check on the publication titles of some of the upcoming Classic titles and the site seems to be scrubbed of any Classic books, front or backlist. The Fall 2014 catalogue available for download on the site still lists the books but not the website proper. Is this just a glitch or has IA dropped the imprint? Any further information would be greatly appreciated from anyone in the know.

Because the volume of work that Crecy have taken on is so huge that it will take quite some time for everything to be assimilated into their system.

This will, as far as I am aware, include contact with all the various authors (myself included) who have had work published through the Ian Allan imprints now with Crecy, examination of contracts, possibly entering into fresh contracts for new/revised works, etc..

It is a massive change, and any benefits will necessarily take quite some time for the buying public to see how everything has shaken into place and is then taken forward.
