Preserving Democracy Availability and Shipping Schedules

Today is the official release date for our latest book-Preserving Democracy, by Elgin Hushbeck, Jr.  Official release date has an interesting definition around here, in that it is a bit more like a cloud than a specific point.  As a rule, we hold all prepublication offers open until all editions are being shipped to all customers.

Here are the details on Preserving Democracy:

Already available:

Kindle Edition, available via Amazon.com.

Adobe eBook edition, currently available via one eBook retailer, BooksonBoard.com.  Others should be carrying this soon.

Approximate Expected shipping/availability dates:

Note: All these dates are approximate.

Online retailers: Starting April 17, 2009.  We will post notes when the book first appears “in stock” on major online retailer sites.  (Update 4/16/09: Expect 4/20/09 as the start date.)

Direct shipments to dealers and quantity orders:  April 20, 2009.  If we already received your order, or receive it today, we will attempt to get it shipped to you by Friday, but we do not guarantee that; do not count on it.
