"It is my belief that most good books are still unwritten. They are still in the minds of you, me and countless others. When I wrote my first book, "When You Can Walk on Water, Take the Boat," I was lost in a sea of red tape and horrible misinformation about publishing and the "business of books." Thanks to you, NABE and your helpful magazine, "Book Dealers World," I started off on the right foot. You are a great help to many an aspiring author. "
John Harricharan, New World Publishing
