“Your new book is wonderful!” – how my husband greeted me this morning. Getting up early he had rambled around for something to read. Gerard’s (and Neo’s) book came to hand and he is now trying to restrain himself and ration out the chapters. He was only vaguely, distantly aware of Gerard and American Digest so you can regard that as an impartial and very enthusiastic review.
I haven’t started it yet but my first impression was really liking the size, look, and feel of it. Very comfortable to hold in the hand. Good margins and font size. Those things matter. Neo, your care and dedication really show…..many thanks!
Ruth:
That’s wonderful!
I’m at a stage with the book right now where I’m trying to reach people who aren’t already readers of Gerard’s work. I’m not sure how to go about it, although I have an idea or two. But one thing I’m thinking of doing is to ask people who already have read the book (or part of it) and enjoyed it to spread the word among their friends and acquaintances, and/or on social media.
So that’s my request, if you or your husband have a mind to.
I participated in a guided tour of Pompeii during my first visit to Italy. It was in the early 1980’s. It’s quite amazing. I only got about 6 minutes into the video, but I recall some discussion about the fact that the ruins had been so well preserved before the excavation. And the worry was, how do we preserve it for generations now?
