Just received my copy of FlyBrick's book.

How cool is that!

I got it for my Dad and think it is a little impolite to read the whole thing before I give it to him, but it looks like there are a whole bunch of first hand accounts. I am going to be an Indian giver (politically incorrect, I know) and ask for it back to read after he is done. But since Brick inscribed it to hime, my Dad will get it back.

Since you gave it a good review, I think you should provide a complete plug, with the title and author.

In addition to providing good reading for any of us, it might be a great Christmas present, available from Amazon and other book merchants.

Of course I haven't read it yet, just skimmed it to check out the content. Dad will get to read it first.

It is FlyBrick's book:

Beaufighters in the Night by Lt. Col. Braxton "Brick" Eisel

I got mine directly from FlyBrick (I am sure you can PM him). I also have his email address. But I am pretty sure it is available through Amazon.

That looks like a really neat book. Thanks for the heads up!

Oh, last time we talked about this, FlyBrick didn't have any on hand. By coincidence, I just ordered a copy from Amazon over the weekend.

My thanks to christie for her advertising for me and the kind words.

I do have some on hand and would be happy to sign/inscribe for gifts. PM me if you'd like.

Marley, thanks for getting a copy. If you want to send it to me - if Amazon can re-route it, or if not, mail it to me, and I'll mail it back.

Cheers (and tell all your friends!),

Brick

I would love to get one for my dad and for Sting. I would also love to have them each inscribed.

Which would be better for you, Flybrick - to have 2 bought from Amazon (and move your book up on the list - okay, just a little, but still) or to get them from you? I want to do what is best for the promotion of your book.

pea, thank you!

If you get them from Amazon, I can use the bump. Have them sent to me, I'll sign/inscribe and then mail to you.

PM for my address.

Thanks!

Brick

My thanks to the BBs who have contacted me and/or ordered from Amazon.

It's up to 90,000th ranking today.

Sure beats the 781,123 I've seen it slide to.................

peacock2121 · #13 Post by **peacock2121** » Wed Oct 31, 2007 1:24 pm

It sure does!

Hoping it keeps on climbing.

christie1111 · #14 Post by **christie1111** » Wed Oct 31, 2007 1:26 pm

Keep flying up in the ranking!

Okay, lame but heartfelt!

peacock2121 · #15 Post by **peacock2121** » Wed Oct 31, 2007 1:28 pm

It wasn't lame. It was cute.

I wonder how many books a jump of 691,123 places in the ranking actual represents?

Flybrick · #17 Post by **Flybrick** » Wed Oct 31, 2007 2:02 pm

From ones that I know of, six...........

C'mon, folks, help me get to the bestseller list, if only for one day!!

Seriously, I am really grateful that those that have expressed interest followed through.

You'll keep climbing that Amazon list. You're 90,000 with a bullet!

Absolutely! Brag away!

Speaking of avatars, though, where's that Beaufighter photo, FlyBrick?
