Castro Handbook publishers

[faceless]

I'm sure most of you will have read about the publishers of Galloway's book "Fidel Castro Handbook" having gone into liquidation? As soon as I heard this I thought I should get a copy asap and managed to get a brand-new hardback edition off Ebay for a tenner (including delivery).

If you want one, you can get it here: CLICK

My feelings precisely. I thought https://www.lulu.com/uk sold it .. but I can't find it on their site.

Regarding Amazon, I think only the unsigned books are available. I suppose one extra incentive to go to a GG event and ask for a personal signature.

Update : Just in from the Publishers :

Castro publisher, MQ Publications Ltd, ceased to trade

MQ Publications Ltd ceased to trade a week ago, and all staff were fully
paid up to that date. Technically the company will not be in liquidation
until the creditors' meeting in early April, so the question of
compensation has not yet arisen.

We care deeply about George's book, indeed about all the books MQP
published, and what has happened is devastating for all concerned.
Another small publishing company has gone to the wall, a consequence of
an American bankruptcy that seriously affected our company.

We are fighting to save everything we can, and are determined to find a
solution for the Fidel Castro Handbook. I personally worked very closely
with George on the book, and accompanied him to Havana for the
interviews and the meeting with Fidel. I will be discussing all this
personally with George.

Best regards,
Gareth Jenkins
Director
MQ Publications Ltd

On the show, GG said the book is now available again.

I believe the book available from Amazon is NOT the signed one :
https://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/1840726881

The signed one shows as unavailable on Amazon :
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Castro-Handbook-Signed-George-Galloway/dp/1845794419

Therefore if you are looking for a signed copy, I believe this is only available from :

GG_Fan] Thanks for this. Due to Daylight Savings Time, I forgot to set my recording for an hour later, so I missed the 3rd hour.

p.s. With technology not 100%, I hope that with at least 3 of us recording, we won't ever miss a show's recording.
