A New Book?

Well, it isn’t really, but a print version of something produced some years ago has now been published.

To explain:  I am hoping to use Lulu self-publishing for a book in progress.

But to test out how to use this platform and whether it will be suitable for my needs I decided to publish a print version of something produced back in 2012. This is the Houston-Davidson debate of 1896. It has been available as a free download from Lulu for some time. Having tried it out a “proof copy” it seems to fill my needs, but as it has now been “published” in this form, it is also available to others if they want it.

I am not asking anyone to buy a book. If you want just the background story, see this old post on this blog:

There are parts 2 and 3 that follow it.

If you want to download the complete text this can be done freely from Lulu books. Go to their website, go to Bookshop and type in the search terms Houston-Davidson debate.

 Punch it in, and you will see a Yellow cover and the name “Jerome” attached. The same search facility will also now show a print edition.

The printed version has only one real change, the addition of two graphics from newspapers of the day, which you will also find in the articles on this blog. These are not necessary for the story at all, but gave me the opportunity to see how graphics would come out in a Lulu printed edition.
