A whole lot of history
Steve and I got our latest letter from Arcadia Publishing. To our astonishment, the company had sold about 1,500 copies of "Images of America: Lakewood through June.
That's a lot of history. It's great to see the word getting out to so many people!
Steve and I get about 45 cents or so each per book, which is great, and we think it brings us up to about $2 an hour now for the time we put into the research. Just kidding! We're glad Arcadia Publishing makes books like this possible. They cover the up-front costs, and provide the editors. There's no way this book could have happened without them. We did this to help unify a community around its shared heritage.
