PUBLICATION SCHEDULE FOR "ABRAHAM LINCOLN'S MOST FAMOUS CASE: THE ALMANAC TRIAL"

The publication process seems to be running smoothly. I have proofed the copyedited manuscript and sent it back, and today I received the art log. I quickly proofread it and sent it back, and now I am waiting to get the page proofs. I am scheduled to get them on January 13, 2014, and I'm supposed to proofread them and return them by February 3, 2014. February 3 is also the deadline for finishing the index for the book. Once all that is done the book should be released some time in April.
