The paperback edition -- which is updated with corrections and a new preface -- is due out this coming April!
You can already pre-order on Amazon! And honestly, you could take care of so many people on your gift list with this book. Although the subject is dire, the way it's treated grips and leaves the reader not depressed but hopeful. Many people have told me that they were almost reluctant to start reading, but on the very first page they were drawn in by the sheer delight of Phil's prose.
He sure can tell a story. And what a story -- starting with the very earliest moments of Massachusetts history and building, both chronologically and conceptually, right up to the present day. Those same people told me they stayed up late, unable to put the book down. And I really don't think they were just saying this because I'm his wife :) I did it too.
So there you go! Pre-order today!
Also note that the book is available on Kindle! You won't even notice your flight if you take this book along.

This is a marvelous, sad, faithful, wise and important book. One of the best - and easily one of the most significant - books I've read in the last 10 years.
