The book would sell like crazy there--and you'd probably get commissions out the wazoo for more portraits. As I noted before, with this book you'll become the Karsh of ordnance.

At the moment, there are no plans for a tour, though I might do some local signings. Figure that it costs ... $200 a day to be on the road, so I'd need to make sure that I sold at least thirty or more books a day to cover expenses (for my publisher) -- without knowing how well something will sell, it could be a losing proposition for my publisher to put me on tour. What I am doing is making up book-plates that I'll sign for anyone who sends me an appropriately sized SASE and you can glue it into the front of your copy. If sales go crazy, a tour might happen. Especially if they can package me with a couple of other authors to cut down on expenses. So .. the answer is "who knows". kc _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
