Mediterranean Air War by Chris Shores

[Frank Olynyk]

If I had to make a guess, I would say the book will appear in England in December. But really, all I can actually say is, it will appear when it appears.

The first half or so of the book has gone off to Grub Street for editing and typesetting. My part, on the Americans, should go to Chris et al in a few days, and then has to be integrated into the final manuscript. Chris plans on spending some time at the PRO in the near future to take care of some loose ends (and hopefully find some information for me!). So hopefully sometime in September the remainder of the book will go to Grub Street. Once that is done the photos have to be selected and integrated into the text, and then the final pagination can be done. Once that is ready Chris will have to prepare the index (for volume one that took at least a week). Then that goes into the final version, and off to the printer and the binder.

Then Chris will flop into a chair and take a rest.

Enjoy!

Frank.
