Thanks, BBT. Can't wait to finally get a copy.
I have a question that will probably sound really dumb, but bear in mind I know nothing about the book publishing biz. When a CD is released and sells like wildfire, there is a scramble to print another batch. However, I've noticed that some books sell so well that they become collector's items, yet are never reprinted. Could someone shed some light on why that is?
It happened with another book I bought in the mid-'70s. I know people who can't find it anywhere but would love a copy. Seems that since it sold so well the first time around it would surely do so again.
Thanks in advance for the education. :)
