New Wall book - don't miss out! |

Since our news story and
review, posted on August 17th, word has been
spreading about the recently published book by respected historians Vernon Fitch
and Richard Mahon. 'Comfortably Numb - A History of “The Wall”, 1978-1981',
published on July 25th, is a beautifully illustrated yet richly detailed
hardback tome that concerns itself solely with that album.
 Research for the book was done over the last ten years, and part of this
involved approaching all those involved in the album and live show - from the
band themselves, to designers, to sound engineers. Apart from rich textual
detail, many of these people have also contributed their own, previously unseen
pictures, and these are included within the pages. In total there are over 400
pictures in the book.
"Comfortably Numb" contains a staggering level of
detail - with no stone (or should I say, brick?) unturned; the book has every
detail you could potentially wish for, and plenty more besides.
As we know so many of you would greatly enjoy this book, we wouldn't want you
to miss out. So, we contacted Vernon to find out how sales were going. Helped in
part by our review, sales are strong with this book, and as word gets around
from those who have received the book, available copies are diminishing. Vernon
also tells us that reviews of the book will also be appearing in a number of key
national and international publications.
As there are just 5000 copies of the book, each hand numbered and signed by
the authors, and with a donation from the sale of each going to Amnesty
International, the authors advise any BD readers who want to secure their copy
to act quicky. This is particularly important if you want to make sure of
receiving your copy in time to give it as a Christmas gift, and you are outside
the US. And, just to remind you, it is not available in bookshops or elsewhere
online.
More information on the book, with example pages, can be found at www.PFApublishing.com
where you can also place your orders for this incredible book.
