    3. Shelia, The publisher's address should be in the front of the book, so try to get in touch with them, maybe they can tell you. A far off "cousin" had a book on my Shumate line and it had been out of print for years. The cousin sent me a copy of the front pages and the pages that had information on my line, but I wanted more. I looked the publishers address and phone number up online, then I called him. He gave me his e-mail address when I told him that others would also be interested in a 2nd printing of the book if he could do it. He was able to get in touch with the author and got his permission. We had to see how many people would actually buy the book to make it worth printing again, so I sent e-mail to everyone I had been in touch with, explaining I would not be gaining anything financially, but the more orders before printing would enable the publisher to sell the books at a lower price. We were successful in getting it done and I have my copy (:-}.
