I wonder what the hold was.

There were emails on the PRRTHS IO Groups list. The printer for the softcover version was bought by another printing company just as the books arrived. So now they have to be moved to the new company's distribution center to be shipped.
This has delayed shipping a couple weeks, they are now due to be shipped next week or the last week of July.
Does anyone have a copy?
It's not shipped to general members yet. AFAIK only the author and reviewers have seen it.
How's the coverage of pre-WWI stuff?
I've seen it mentioned, but it always seems rather perfunctory in other books (because it's generally much harder) and sometimes is just the same 5 photos over and over.
Hopefully, with 224 pages and 336 photos they have covered all the eras well. But I don't know how many photos are available from pre-WWI. Being a PRRT&HS book, hopefully the author had access to all the archived photos of the society.
