    Sooner rather than later hopefully. I wouldnt get my hopes up too much about this new Greb book. Its written by the guy who runs the Harry Greb website and he has so many mistakes on his site its pitiful:-( That probably sounds like sour grapes from a "competitor" to some but I know Ive worked almost full time on my book for six years drawing from thousands of first hand accounts etc. and Im still not done, BUT Im doing it right. Greb's story has so many falsehoods and myths attached to it that he deserves to have his story told factually. One cursory look at the Greb website will tell you that this book was rushed to publication and that this guy hasnt done his homework. Maybe he will prove me wrong but I doubt it.
