I recently contacted Mrs. Frank Paxton regarding the status of Frank's book. Here is the reply I received from Frank's daughter-in-law: Thank you for your inquiry to the Paxton web site about the date of publication of Frank Paxton's book, "The Paxtons: An American History." Mrs. Paxton has asked me to reply and let you know that, as far as we can tell, it will be available near the end of this year. We'll keep you informed as we near publication date. Thanks for your interest.
