Herb (Drbuster),

Please reread my posting... ... I have no foreknowledge that John D. has a book in progress... I said that he "needs" to write a book! ...and indeed he does.

You can surmount the modern book publishing obstacles if you have a known market for your output by going electronic. Gerard Henrotin (author of the Luger animation that graces our home page) has done very well with his Luger and other gun series ebooks. I am sure John D. could recoup his investment by taking direct orders instead of the percentage that a publisher could offer him. Distribution could be done by controlled serially numbered downloads tied to the computer you install them on... just like Gerard's books.
