I heard him say that if you wanted to BUY the book on Ebay, it was $17 K. Is this true? Someone with more time should check it out.
John may have said $1700.00 -- here's an ebay offered signed John Kerry book THE NEW SOLDIER for $1500.00.

Kerry has been trying to hide the book ever since his first run for Congress in the 1970s -- Kerry refuses to allow anyone reprint rights. Somebody should ask him at a Press Conference if he would be willing for the public to see the book easily and at a reasonable price. Take a look at the book on www.wintersoldier.com and you will see right away why Kerry wants the book kept in the dark.
