Per author Gary Purlee "Several people have inquired about the Tunnel Mill books. The final hard cover proof arrived a few hours ago, I am obviously biased but was blown away by the quality from the publisher. The revision is much more than a reprint. There are significant additions and revisions. AI has been used and the results are stunning in many cases. Lots of color photos and we used the top grade of paper available. The book is massive with almost 600 pages and feels like a brick. So, I will do revisions and corrections this weekend and submit the final files hopefully next week. IF ALL GOES WELL. The publisher tells me two weeks in printing once I do the approval of their layout. I have to check all 600 pages multiple times. Then a half ton of books ship! The cars may live outside of the garage for a while. We are setting up book signings and distributions and will announce those soon. My plans are that 100 percent of the sales will go to a couple of local not for profits. I think the Friends group plans to host some of these where the total sales go to them to support their efforts. Stay tuned."
