Thanks so much, guys. I have to admit that this book was Jim's idea and not mine. But of course, I hardly resisted when Jim suggested it.

We met with many of our contributors this past weekend, and I am really humbled by both the magnitude of the collective knowledge that will be working on this book and their willingness to contribute to the book.

Our goal is to create a book that will be detailed enough that it satisfies the most devoted WW1 buff, yet at the same time not so bogged down in detail that it alienates the general reader. In fact, my hope is that it will be a bit educational for the general reader.

Not sure how the distribution will work out at this point, but at the very least it will be available through my site. Talking with Jim, it sounds like if we can sell through our initial run we might have a chance of it being picked up by Amazon or B&N.

Oh, and we will definitely be offering remarqued editions.
