THE BOILERPLATE COFFEE TABLE BOOK
We are weeks away from officially announcing a publisher and release date for Boilerplate: History's Mechanical Marvel. It looks like it may be a 200 page, 9x10, hardbound book with 300 illustrations. We will be turning in the manuscript in six months, and it will probably be at bookstores in the fall of 2009.
Stay tuned!
