Finding Angel in Black

I went looking for my book "Angel in Black: Remembering Dale Earnhardt, Sr." the other day, and I found two at Borders in Winston-Salem, N.C. They'd already sold one — I'm rich! — and I signed the other two copies to make it easier to sell.

So Borders has the Angel in Black. (Actually, Winston-Salem no longer has a Borders; this is late 2014.)

I did a Google Alert for the book, and, naturally, it's on Amazon. The web site there is http://www.amazon.com/Angel-Black-Remembering-Dale-Earnhardt/dp/1581826389.

The publisher, Cumberland House Publishing of Nashville, Tenn., has a site, naturally. It's http://www.cumberlandhouse.com/books/Angel-in-Black-Remembering-Dale-Earnhardt-Sr-.html.

I also found it at:

It's even mentioned on Jerry Nadeau's site -- Jerry's quoted in the book. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like he's selling it. The web site, though, is http://www.jerry-nadeau.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=887&sid=835a0f2678a550d18a64c8fab714f739. Check him out; Jerry's a good guy.

There are many other sites, I'm sure, but this is a representative listing.

Oh, and if you want an autographed copy, contact me at nc3022@yahoo.com. Operators are not standing by, but I can help hook you up with your Earnhardt fix.

Buy three; they're small. And 3 is always appropriate for Earnhardt.
