This forum isn't a proper venue for a sales pitch for my next book -- so if you think that you may be interested in ordering a signed copy of the Powley-and-Howell book Inside the Rifle (on the basics of interior ballistics), please e-mail me at kenhowell1931@earthlink.net, and I'll e-mail you an announcement and printable form for your order. I hope to be ready to take prepaid advance orders beginning 1 January 2004, for books to delivered within the next three months or so. Your e-mail needs no message -- just the header "book order" or "Inside the Rifle" or just "book."

Just be sure that you spell your e-mail address correctly! I've gotten some that were obviously misspelled, and I didn't notice until I got notices that my replies hadn't gone through. It was easy to correct "***fatther" to "***father" and submit the e-mail again, but the correct spellings of some misspelled addresses were beyond all guess.

Dr. Howell,
Thanks for the update. I definitely have a place in my library for this book!

Ken ----- I just sent you an E-Mail, thanks for the heads up, and thanks for your hard work. Good shooting.

E-mail sent. This will be a great addition to my collection. It will sit right next to my copy of "Designing and forming Custom Cartridges for Rifles and Handguns". No.764.

Thanks
Jeff in ND
