Book Publishing?

If those details are out of date I’m pretty sure that he sells in person at Old Warden events – whether that’s helpful to you or not I can’t say.

There used to be a regular poster on here (GrahamSimons) who has self-published a considerable number of his own aviation books.

He published John Hamlin’s ‘Peaceful Fields’ (albeit in 2007), inside the front cover of which the following contact details are given:

Address: 67 Pyhill, Bretton, Peterborough PE3 8QQ

Tel/fax: 01733 265123

Nowadays if you want accurate and reliable information, you still read a book 😉  So much of  what is online turns out to be misleading (particularly historical information – there seem to be far too many modernist historians who seem to be trying to rewrite history to suit their own warped political viewpoint), or it is inaccurate or incomplete, and then has disappeared when you try to refer back to it at a later date. 

I don’t think weblinks of any kind in a book will be a good idea – after (probably not many) years, you would probably find the links are dead, and watching the ever increasing amount of criminal and disruptive activity on the internet, and the increasing frequency of breaches in security and personal and private data being exfiltrated and sold to other criminals, I have my doubts whether ‘online’ has a realistic future at all to be honest.

There used to be a regular poster on here (GrahamSimons) who has self-published a considerable number of his own aviation books.  I don’t think he has been active on this forum for some time though (it is impossible to check with this crappy featureless message board format), but it may be worth trying to contact him for advice?

30 years ago, if you wanted to know, you read a book. Today, if you are 30 or younger, you go online. Online is great for context, poor for detail and rumination. Therefore a book, with detail and QR codes that launch short videos might be a ‘future format’

Publishing.
