I was at the Annapolis Sailboat show this past weekend. In speaking with several of the authors in attendance there (hawking their sail related books), not a one of them showed any interest in eBook publication. These are 'old salts' & know that seamen don't have the physical space to accumulate loads of pbooks. But yet they were not open to the possibility that having their books available in digital format would increase the # of sales to those to whom they write their books. I told one author, point blank, I would love to have her cookbook, but would not be purchasing it, due to the fact that I would have no room for it aboard my boat.
I really thought I would have better luck with folks who know the necessity of space conservation....oh well, old dogs, new tricks....
