Good Morning,

NTI Upstream wants to let you know that your author signed Advanced Readers Copy of Coppola: A Pediatric Surgeon in Iraq (for your participation in the LibraryThing Early Reviewers program) has been shipped and should arrive shortly.

Bestselling author (Final Exam: A Surgeon's Reflections on Mortality) and NY Times columnist Pauline Chen praises the work as “powerful, thought-provoking, and unforgettable…” In Chen’s words, after reading Coppola: A Pediatric Surgeon in Iraq, “You will never again look at the Iraq war—or any war for that matter—in quite the same way.”

We hope you enjoy Coppola: A Pediatric Surgeon in Iraq and look forward to your comments. For further information, please visit the official website http://www.coppolathebook.com

Thank you,

NTI Upstream

I wouldn't give up on the May book yet - some publishers really do take over a month to get the book to you. Give it another week or two?

Hello Rick, thank you for connecting with me. I see you're into philosophy and military history; you may be interested in my new book "The Art of War -- Spirituality for Conflict." Let me know if you have any questions. Sincerely, Thomas
