The book is now available for $25.  We will be selling and signing copies tonight at Art Walk from 5 to 8pm.  We'll be located in the Main Library's entrance near Hemming Plaza (in front of the old Shelby's Coffee location).

If I didn't pre-order the book can I show up tonight with $25 and still get one?

Are we supposed to have received the pre-order by today or the end of the week?  Just curious if I'll have it for tonight or not. 
So I said to him: Arthur, Artie come on, why does the salesman have to die? Change the title; The life of a salesman. That's what people want to see.

The first shipment of books were sent via air yesterday, so pre-orders should be to each individual by the end of the week.  However, if you want to stop by tonight, I'll give you your preorder copy.

Yes.  Anyone can get a signed copy tonight.  Both pre-orders and random purchases.

Glad you love it.  Sales have been brisk this week.  It still has not been released to retailers yet but we're down to having a copy of autographed copies still available from our initial order.

Guys, the book is fantastic.  The pictures are just stunning.  Great information and history.

I found one tiny typographical error.  Not significant.

^What was that?  I noticed the HP editor left off a "Y" on the number of units in the Ambassador Hotel.  So it reads as eight instead of eighy rooms.

Date that read 1969 instead of 1869.  Context makes the real date obvious, so no big deal.
