Wants books to be done on the hobby more than I do. Any printed tome adds permancy to the hobby while the internet, while wonderful, does not last forever.
I'm glad Bob agrees with me on what the book should have in terms of completeness and color photos, etc. Believe it or not, I think we basically agree on the publishing problems of doing a work like this.
IF you can get 2,000 copies committed with a price point of $39.95 with the color photos, good articles, etc THEN I think the book is economically feasible for F&W.
I'll stick with my 1000 copies top BUT a commitment for SALES of 2.000 at the higher price point is a go where F&W will make money on the book. Of course that brings another challenge to get clients to commit to $39.95 but.
