I hope you are right Tom, although my personal opinion is that's it's taken way too long to publish this book. With all due respect Dale should have put the BCR book on the back burner and concentrated on Ken Meekers WP book instead. However, I believe this may have been because other WP books were being been published (by Four Ways West, as an example). But look at it this way - it's been almost 30 years since the loss of the WP. Given the time line this book really should have been published years ago. There are many WP fans that feel that way. Some of us find it really difficult to cough up that kind of money for a book, no matter how good it might be.
