Default Re: Kicking around a possible book idea

Sounds like a cool topic. I wish you the best of luck getting it published. I wrote a book about a Civil War surgeon and because its such a small niche its very hard to sell copies. I had two big name military publishers interested in mine but had to pass due to the economy and probability that it would not be a big seller. Your best bet is to self publish and market yourself.
