I said this the first time when I was questioning you about a box. I meant it then as well as now, "I respect you IMMENSELY, and what you have done for the hobby. You have few, if any equals." Now you will have a book to prove it. Congratulations Nick, You deserve it my friend.

I think Nick will end up signing lots of copies for all his online pals if he's not careful!
Cheers,
Gavin

Hi Kevin.
I'm afraid to say that there is no news concerning the book. The last time I heard from the publisher was at the start of the year when they told me that Osprey publishing had been bought out by Bloomsbury publishing and the publication date for my book had been postponed until late 2017, I have had no further contact with the publisher since then, I can only assume it will finally appear in the autumn (fall) 2017. But if it is not published by the start of 2018 the ownership of the manuscript reverts back to me so it will appear one way or another, its just when???.

That is encouraging news Nick, lets hope the next update from them is to confirm a print run and at what price.
