Is there any way to purchase this book except through Amazon? I assume at your fund raiser the profits would go to CHOSA. I would like to purchase it but want to be sure you get any profit. Please advise. Elizabeth Miller [email protected]
Hi Elizabeth,
The are a few ways to get the book. Unfortunately, right now, its only out in Europe and South Africa where you can get it in bookstores. It will be out in the US in 2 months or so when books are sent to the US distributors.
If you live in the US, right now, you have to get it via the UK (bookdepository.com) or via Amazon.com. You can order it here: http://www.bookdepository.com/No-Land-No-House-No-Vote-Symphony-Way-Pavement-Dwellers/9781906387846?b=-3&t=-21#Reviews-21
Finally, your last option is to get it from me in LA. I wouldn’t mind sending you a copy if you send me details and money for shipping.
