The Mac Man book...any plans of a Mac Man II?

The Mac Man is a great book. Are their any plans for a second updated version? More info, more pics, more everything, more anything.

Sounds like a shout out to member "Ferndog1"!!! I admit you do AWESOME WORK!!! Thanks for all you contribute to the MG enthusiasts!!!

Maybe if we get enough people on here to bug him to do an updated version. I know that their is enough stuff to do an updated version. However, Dan Shea writes the checks for the books. It would ultimately be up to Dan. And the first printing would have to be sold out.

I'd buy one (MMII). It's a great book well done at an affordable price. What's not to like?

Google for Mac Man ... it's available thru all the normal channels.

Order one from Ferndog1 and ask him to sign it. I think I read on this forum somewhere that he sold them and would sign as well.

Yep, order direct from Frank. He will sign it

Understood. The market has to support printing a second edition. The original MAC MAN book was so well written that I was sure it would sell well. Are there any public sales numbers?

I don't think a second edition will be coming anytime soon, retirement from writing looms (for real this time). Working on my LAST book now, the 3rd edition of the Thompson book American Thunder III.
There are a few articles on MACs, Lage etc coming in SAR, which BTW is back to monthly issues.

And thanks for the comments, they are appreciated!
