A Message to Our Subscribers and a Bonus
Thank You!
For the past seven months
I have been engaged in the most laborious effort of my
life, the writing of my new book, Crossing the Rubicon:
America's Descent Into Fascism at the End of the Age
of Oil. I am pleased to announce that the project is nearly
complete and that the book will go on sale through our
publisher, Los Angeles-based Feral House, sometime in
the spring. Don't worry, when I have an exact release
date you'll be the first to know.
The process of writing and
researching this book has been costly. The most apparent
cost to me was the time that it took away from From
The Wilderness and
building it into an even better vehicle to give you life-and-death,
critical information on a timely basis. Because so much
of my attention has been focused on the book, and because
we are planning to relocate to Oregon as soon as possible
after the book is published, FTW has lost the services of our staff writers who won't be able
to make the move. As you can see, however, we have not
had a shortage of material from the many great talents
that are arising in these troubled times.
Next month, as a way of saying
thank you to the subscribers who have been so loyal and
supportive, I have received permission from the publisher
to release one sample chapter from the 27-chapter book
to our subscribers only. That chapter, titled Eating
the Chosen People, will comprise the
bulk of our next newsletter and it will not be available anywhere else, to
anyone else.
And I want to promise all
of you that all of my efforts will now be devoted to
the critical task of timely reporting of events and an
expansion of FTW's ability to keep you better informed and give you a better
map of this dangerous world in which we live.
In March of 2003 FTW will celebrate five continuous
years of publication. From our first mailing of 68
newsletters to a current subscriber base of over 5,000
with more than 4,000 visits a day to our web site we
have all come a long way. And all of us have so much
more to do. I cannot thank you enough.
