The Truce - Coming January 2024

A book announcement and a special offer

I’m very pleased to announce that the Truce, by Hunter Walker and yours truly, is coming out early next year. It’s been three years of reporting and writing, and by the end of the countless cycles of refining I started to get the sneaking suspicion that it’s worthwhile, readable, and enjoyable. That’s a wholly unfamiliar sensation for me for a long piece of writing that hasn’t received any critical feedback yet, and it’s a little scary. I’m proud of what we wrote, and I hope you’ll like it.

You can preorder the book at your favorite bookseller¹ or at this link.

As a thank you to paid subscribers, Hunter and I would be pleased to mail you a book plate signed by both of us. This is essentially a large sticker designed to be placed in the book to make it a signed copy. If you’d like one, send me an email (nycsouthpaw18@gmail.com) with a screenshot of your order confirmation for the book and your mailing address, and we’ll do our best to get it to you around the same time you receive your copy.

If you aren’t a paid subscriber yet, but you’d like a book plate, I hope you’ll subscribe.

1. With some bemusement, I have to tell you that if you search for my non-standard name on some bookseller’s websites, they’ll insist you’re making a mistake. But if you search for the title or Hunter’s name, or use the link above, you’ll find it.
