This is the one shameless vanity permitted by JimRob for us to let people know that our book is available. Its a good companion to Rands book, and it would make a fine Christmas gift to people who are daunted by the challenge of reading Atlas Shrugged unaided. FReepers were the first to know about it!

Did you clear that with whoever is running Ayn Rand’s estate? They are famously proactive about defending her legacy and her philosophy.

There’s no need to clear literary criticism with the estate. If anything, we’re doing them a big favor. The Ayn Rand Institute is getting its free copy.

I am John Galt.
Went there 3 years ago.
Can't live in Galt's Gulch indefinitely, but I can outlast the current politicians, considering that the vast majority of them will be retired involuntarily in 2014 and 2016.
To: Publius
Why don't you post the whole thing here instead of being a
blog book pimp? < /sarc>
More seriously, I've looked at the preview and already picked up things I missed in multiple readings of Atlas Shrugged. It's on my wish list for my next purchase.

I don’t know. I’m sure the NSA does, though.

thanks so much for the ping & good grief I am so glad you are letting us know.
It bugs me that some object to others promoting their stuff!
Ironically I am reading part 3 in eager rediness for movie release in July 14.. yes a long way off...
Might reread the whole book again before its release. I have gotten through the book 3 times.. but each time quickly scan Galt’s LONG monologues..I(am I the only one?)
will go to Amazon & get it, if not now, first of Dec//. I am really $$ depressed but do a few wild things with the couple nickels I find to rub together..
will this be a permanent ping list? I have a small readers/writers group on FB. Not terribly active and the few authors on it (LS among others you might know) dont really participate. Cant say it is a tear you apart with activity group~
:-)
thanks again

A mid-day bumperoo. The book is
HERE. We're doing a Kindle edition as well - got a couple of wrinkles to work out but it's coming.
To: KarlInOhio
In 2009 we spent 30 weeks here at FR doing Atlas Shrugged for our first book club. We did in fact post the whole thing here. I think you'll enjoy the book.

The ping lists left over from our two FReeper Book Clubs still exist: one for
Atlas Shrugged, and one for the Federalist and anti-Federalist papers.
The best way to read our book is to use it as a companion to Rand's book. Read them together.

Hmmmm. That’s a good one. Billthedrill and I might have to do a national book tour like Sarah Palin.

Tagging along with the Hockey Mom’s tour would be real good duty.
