I’ve been working on this book for over a year and finally I have a copy of the first “proof” of the book in my hand!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I spent a few days going though it and have already found some details that need to be fixed so I will be working on them next weekend. The biggest things I see changing are some of the maps used in the chapter artwork. I thought having the map of the route for each leg would look ok at the bottom of the chapter heading, but compared to the chapter pages with the route as a watermark, they just don’t look right. I’m hoping to use watermarks for the rest of the pages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But the cover, wow. The artwork Norm did is outstanding and it just shines beyond belief looking at it in print. I can’t believe it looks that great.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I ordered both a color and black and white edition just to see how well the photos would turn out. Both editions looks great.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This weekend I will work on finishing all of the grammar and text updates and push towards a final print ready version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
