RE: [ChurchillChat] Approaching Another Milestone

2017-09-12 Thread Dave Turrell 
Peter,

 

As has been noted elsewhere, this delay has very little to do with Prof. 
Mueller who, I understand, completed his work a significant time ago.  Since we 
have established that WSC is not involved in the project (sorry Stan :)) it’s 
all down to the publishers.

 

The last time I was in touch with Bruce Fingerhut of St Augustine’s (Oct 24th 
2016), he assured me that he would know the publication date for sure by the 
end of November.  He also assured me he was aware of the death of Lady Soames, 
referred to on their website as “Churchill’s only surviving child”.  That 
reference is still there.

 

If you want to try getting latest status from Bruce, he is at 
br...@staugustine.net <mailto:br...@staugustine.net>

Agreed.  Hillsdale is a stellar example of getting it right.  St. Augustine is 
a stellar example of something else altogether.

I wouldn't let this fiasco discourage you about all scholarly publication. 
There are rays of light.  For example Hillsdale's republication of Sir Martin 
Gilbert's wonderful biography and the ongoing accompanying volumes, has been a 
real pleasure to watch and enjoy.

Thanks Dave for that information.  I was totally unaware of this fact since 
there is no clarification on the St. Augustine website.  Apologies to all for

How dreadful are the curses which The River War (St. Augustine Press) lays on 
its prospective readers!  Besides the fanatical frenzy to purchase this bloody 
book, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this 
fearful fatalistic apathy by the author and publisher.  The ultimate effects of 
this enterprise are forever forthcoming.  The implication of impotent writing 
habits, slovenly systems of manuscript editing, sluggish methods of book 
binding, and randomly selected or expired publication dates are manifest 
wherever the followers of the St. Augustine Press website access their 
internet.  A degrading sense of hopelessness and abandonment envelops Churchill 
fans deprived of this book’s much heralded grace and refinement; along with an 
ever-diminishing faith in the dignity of scholarly publications and the 
sanctity of truth in advertising.  

On this coming September 20th will Professor Mueller once again emerge from his 
Alaskan burrow, manuscript in hand, only to be repelled by sight of his own 
shadow?
