Release Date for Down the Highway, a Peace is projected for June 22, 2015.

superseded by notice of publication

June 15, 2015.

The publisher of Down the Highway, a Peace, by poet Rick Hilber has provided a preview of the book available on the internet at the link displayed at the bottom of this press release (just click on the link to see the preview).

- Be sure to read the blurbs in this preview provided for publication by three who had read the manuscript shortly after submission to Friesen Press by the poet: Dr. Jennifer Montgomery, Poet Dale Jacobson, and the Rev. Jacki Belile. The poet has made changes in the manuscript as part of the book preparation process since these blurbs were first provided to promote the sale of the book.

Publisher’s Bookstore Sales.

As early as next Monday, June 22, 2015, the publisher at this same link will then begin to take orders for any of the three editions of the book: ebook, softcover book, or hardcover book. The prices for the softcover edition and the hardcover edition at FriesenPress bookstore at this link will remain typically lower than other retail outlets (at least initially) although the discounting of list prices of books is always at the discretion of a retailer in most instances. See the note below on ebook pricing however.

General Availability Delay.

A number of weeks (two to five weeks) will then follow before other retail outlets such as Amazon.com will begin to take orders for purchase of the book in all three editions: the ebook, the softcover, and the hardcover editions. There will be some unpredictability of course about when it should reach the various retailers such as Barnes and Noble, but the book dealers tend nowadays to have online bookstores which helps them stay abreast of the daunting lead of Amazon.com in marketing new titles (without actually having shelf copies available for walk in sales).

About the Ebook Purchase of the book.

The email book is priced at $4.99 if purchased from my publisher’s online store (see link below) - which is the same price that one will pay at Amazon.com and other online book stores which market the ebook edition of my book. So do not pay more than $4.99 for your kindle or ebook reader edition next week, or ever for that matter.
