In a continuing effort to bring greater understanding to the world, I submit this second installment of my book tour video diary. It’s a condensed version, skipping many events, some cities and that ugly incident involving the pet lemur. This section of the tour starts in San Francisco and ends in Cleveland where I am joined by The Outlaw Family Band and members of my own family for another try at RV living. Or dying.

For a book to sell people have to know about it. That’s why authors go on book tours. It’s all about publicity - TV and radio interviews - Newspaper coverage - Book store appearances - Readings - Signings. To add spice to my tour I asked some friends in the Outlaw Family Band, a Chicago based bluegrass/rock group to back me up in the midwestern markets. This is the first installment of a video diary about that tour, starting with a TV interview in Chicago and then a reading and signing session in my hometown of Winnetka, Illinois. The next morning I was off to New York City for a Today show appearance and then on to California. This is just the beginning.
