Glad to hear Andy is OK.....he has managed to survive against the odds with a specialty book shop [mostly by call/email-in orders] for as long as I've been doing JFK research. Glad to hear the Last Hurrah has not had its last hurrah!! Any email address for the shop? I don't touch Facebook - the NSA watches it [invented it] a bit too much for my taste....and I can't usually make international calls - too expensive.

No last hurrah for the shop!
Read not to contradict and confute;
nor to believe and take for granted;
nor to find talk and discourse;
but to weigh and consider.

Sadly it came to my attention this past November that Andy takes vast amounts of books from author, sells same and does not pay the author.
I have always liked and done business with Andy, mostly at COPA. So this was distressing to learn.
Perhaps Amazon was really hurting his sales but nonetheless one author I know is missing several hundred books and it appears Andy has given what was left to a third party to sell.
