Congratulations! It is not easy to crank out nonfiction at a fast pace, so kudos to you!

Thank you, Rachael--and you would certainly know the drill! It's been a full-time plus plus commitment for most of the last eighteen months, but I'm grateful for the opportunity...in terms of subject matter, it's an endlessly fascinating embarrassment of riches!

Hi Malcolm! I can't wait until the new book is published so I can recommend it to my men's book club for next year. Guaranteed initial sales of 18 copies and who knows how many more by word-of-mouth :)! They will love the book! Dick

Thank you, Dick--I'm honored already! It's been quite an experience immersing in that time and place...the 19th century newspapers alone are quite a wild ride...

Oh, my, goodness. This book sounds absolutely wonderful. I am a Butte-loving person and can't wait to read this one. Congratulations. I hope it is being published over here in the UK? If not, I will have to activate the Missoula book community!

Hi Joanna! So far it's only North America, but hopefully that changes--Butte's heyday had an impact around the world, so it would seem fitting that it's remembered around the world. But regardless, you know I'll sign one and send it to you from ground zero!
