My other book
Amazon.com is apparently now selling my “first" book. Actually, it’s my college honors thesis. As Amazon says, it is most definitely “Out of print—limited availability”—I think I made about a dozen copies of the thing, most of which I handed over to the history department.
I’m guessing they picked up the listing from the catalog of the Mountain View Public Library, where I dropped a copy as a thank you for letting me raid their clippings files and microfilm for my research, though why Amazon would suggest it might be available for purchase is beyond me.
Ah, the Internet—where every silly thing you’ve ever written lives on forever in virtual infamy. Coming soon: excerpts from my eighth grade report on the Kennedy assassination!
