There's a review out on the book, over on ePluribus, Netrooting in the Grass(Roots) by Aaron Barlow. This is the last week of the pre-sale (deadline on the 27th), and for you to be a Progressive Partner. You can pre-order on Amazon or Powells or elsewhere, but only the Pogressive Partner books will have the gold band across the bottom. It's not a gimmick either, as we are going with Chesea Green as our alternative press publisher (shunned the big advance from the Murdoch-owned conglomerates, went with the envirnoment-friendly publishing model, and doing 'the real work' to build the progressive infrastructure), we had to help raise funds for the national campaign book tour that we'll be doing.
Markos spoke the other day here in DC for PFAW, and over 60 chapters of the organizations put invitations to come and speak at their campuses. And then there are the big book stores along the way too, and other things (I'm speaking at the Change for KY DFA training on Feb 12th in Elizabethtown, KY). The book tour begins in March through April. Glenn Smith, who some of you probably know from Texas politics or from Drive Democracy last year (or from blogging here and on dkos), is going to be the campaign manager for the book tour.
From what I can tell, the pre-order for the Progressive Partner edition is set to arrive at doors nationwide about the middle of February, so less than a month away (they have to be sketchy on a firm date with all the mechanical deadlines and what not). This Progressive Partner edition will arrive two weeks prior to it being publically released.
Anyway, check out the review, and I hope you enjoy CTG.
