There's a glitch with the new server.  It's something we'll have to work on.

That's something I can help out.

Thank you sir.  Btw, I just got confirmation from History Press that they'll be in April 16th instead of the 20th.

Excellent. Can't wait to get a copy.
Do you believe that when the blue jay or another bird sings and the body is trembling, that is a signal that people are coming or something important is about to happen?

I just ordered a copy. Even though I now live in Metro Atlanta I consider Jacksonville my spiritual home. Evergreen Cemetary has many of my ancestors dating back to post Civil War. My ancestors from Scotland had Spanish Land Grants on Amelia Island. I love Jacksonville history as I remember some of these buildings from my childhood in the 60's and 70's. I have been reading posts on MJ for several years but finally registered today. Can't wait for the book.

Hi,
just a quick question - will you also offer intl. shipping ? It seems like the charges are fixed for US domestic shipping.

Thanks,
Gunnar

Great title!  Can't wait to buy one to put next to Dr. Wood's books.

10/4!

Top Shelf perhaps.

I may grant it more worldly bookshelf status;
Place next to "Naked Emperors" (Garett Hardin-signed copy,supportive letter), Hiassen "Kick Ass" ( Jacksonville's Millionth Mania, North Miami/MJ),"Egotopia"/Miller,"Edge City"/Garreau,"Charlevoix"/Bob Miles,special limited edition Forward,"Parade of Memories"/Clay Chamber of Comerce,"Fairy Spells "/Nahmad, "Clay county- From Woodlot to Parking Lot in Ten Years"/ Captain C.S. Webster,"Old Hickory Town"/Ward,"Decadence"/Morrow,"Fearrless Change"/Rising,"Loving Each Other"/Buscaglia

  Second shelf:

Onward

If I were you, I'd just go through Amazon. It's for sale there, and pre-order is available (will ship when ready). Furthermore, they deal with all the shipping business.

yeah, but the authors get less royalty money through Amazon that through the MJ PayPal page
