This is a great list. I just met a few new-to-me presses at AWP, one of the highlights of the conference for sure. I'd put Milkweed in the Copper Canyon category, i.e. one of the biggest of the small. :) Alice James, which you list, has become a recent favorite. I'd put Graywolf on my list as well.

Well, Tupelo and 3:ATaos are two of my very favorites! Also, Two Sylvias.

I am so happy to see some of my favorite presses listed here. It's so helpful to think about making a list right now, as I may be ready to give it a go in a month or two.

Those are great choices. I would add Kelsay Press which does a lot of books and beautiful covers and Boa Editions.
