It’s now official. As of today, my first book — The Last Three Miles: Politics, Murder, and the Construction of America’s First Superhighway — is well and truly published.
I realize that people have been getting copies from Amazon and the like for the last couple of weeks, but according to The New Press, the official publication date is June 1. It’s out there in the media bloodstream. The first book event is tomorrow at the Five Corners branch of the Jersey City Free Public Library if you want to drop by and say howdy.
Please pardon my bliss moment. We now resume our regularly scheduled blogging.

Congratulations!
I hope whoever stole my Amazon package enjoys your book (and the accompanying Amy Winehouse CD). An eagerly anticipated replacement package is en route.

Congrats! I’ll order a copy when I get to work tomorrow. I’m eager to read it!

The big box had seven copies on order, would I care to special order one?
Nah, I’ll just want until I can steal one from the author.

Our store had two copies. It now has one. I’m about 50 pages in and greatly enjoying it.
