    Are there any entries under X? If not the name must be changed to A-Z except for X. It would be a selling point as well.

                As long as they never consider calling it the A 2 Z I am happy.

                    What if they call it The A To The Z Of The JTR

                    • Amazon.ca now says that the A-Z won't be available until November. It's starting to sound like it will appear at about the same time as Whittington-Egan's long-awaited opus.

                      • Hello GM,

                        Or just in time to sync with the release and first airing of the TV documentary at the start of December? Or sheer co-incidence?

                        best wishes

                        • Hiya Phil,

                          I didn't know that there was a tie-in with a documentary release. If so, you're right, it makes perfect sense.

                            Here is the link on Jtr Forums..



                            Merry Christmas...

                            • Considering this book has been released and people with copies are already discussing it at the forums, I'm shocked it's not being discussed here, since it's the biggest JTR book release in years. I ordered mine on 09/03 from amazon.co.uk and can 't wait to get it. It's not yet available on amazon.com.

                              Yours truly,

                              Tom Wescott

                                Perhaps we are all busy reading this mammoth effort. I'm sure comments will appear after a while?

                                best wishes
