Came across this book at a local bookstore. Nobody seemed to know where it came from. All searches online proved futile. You guys know more about this? Genuinely curious.

The ISBN-13 is in the second picture for anyone asking. It's 978-0692-00566-8, but a search for it comes up with nothing. That means it's a safe bet that the book is self-published and likely came from a small-press printer, meaning it is also likely a short print run and finding other copies is damn near an impossibility. Especially considering that the websites on the back are now cobwebs

If I were the OP I'd be tempted to go back and buy it, strip the cover, cut the binding, and scan it so whatever is in it could be shared around.

Sounds interesting. If you wanted to put it up on libgen or make it a torrent so that we can read it too that would be cool. But I know that’s a big ask

Having books & bookstores online will make info sooo much easier to control.

FigurineLambda · 2021-06-06T02:24:50+00:00

You really should buy it, and scan it. Who knows, it’s possible that the author is not in this world anymore. If you add this to the fact that there were probably very few prints, you may save his work and help A LOT by scanning this.

It might be self-published because no publisher was willing to risk being associated with it. Does it have an ISBN? Who is the publisher?

Isabelle-is-gay · 2021-06-06T00:49:54+00:00

Please, go back and get this book. You have the opportunity to fill a hole in the internet

singode · 2021-06-05T19:16:52+00:00

Looks like a good read, I wouldn't mind a soft copy

TheZoneRanger · 2021-06-05T23:53:46+00:00

That is called a counter culture book. I bet these books are banned in libraries

chargethemountain · 2021-06-06T00:40:22+00:00

I wonder if the book was perhaps placed there by the author and not online for sale to avoid censorship?

The lack of isbn and only the website is odd.

Snoo-91853 · 2021-06-06T03:28:42+00:00

OP, if you are not willing to buy it yourself, please tell us the name of the bookstore and the the town where it's located. One of us here might well live close to that town.

burnett-lignon · 2021-06-05T19:32:27+00:00

Does it list a publishing co or is it self published?

IFightBitchesToo · 2021-06-06T02:35:49+00:00

I need a copy ASAP!

Wioslarz · 2021-06-05T20:20:03+00:00

It is strange how you cannot get more info about this book.

Anyone else knows more about it?

LameFossil · 2021-06-05T18:58:49+00:00

No idea, but following too

Odd-Reference-32 · 2021-06-06T00:39:12+00:00

Is there an ISBN?

rockretard2 · 2021-06-06T00:33:48+00:00

Anyone able to access the websites?

shrededcheese · 2021-06-06T07:24:01+00:00

Can someone remind me if OP scanned the book? Many thanks.

dachengchuan · 2021-06-06T07:33:03+00:00

does anyone really need a book to know W are toxic as hell ?

ProjectBeginning3253 · 2021-06-06T02:01:53+00:00

I am not sure why Wesley James is taking credit for that book? The true co-authors are Hillary Clinton, AOC, Ilhan Omar, and Rosie O' Donnell......I think Hermione Granger is mentioned as inspiration in the footnotes.

StickyRick33 · 2021-06-06T02:43:07+00:00

Damn where can I buy this book?

bigblaccburner · 2021-06-06T09:43:10+00:00

Go back and get this OP

purplelightofRED · 2021-06-06T07:08:25+00:00

I would love to read his take.

Lost_Musashi · 2021-06-06T14:24:01+00:00

Mysterious. Either you were in the twilight zone or the Mandela effect is to blame.

OwenWentFullMGTOW · 2021-06-06T04:03:52+00:00

Could be it was self-published and the author planted it in some bookstore in his local area. I heard about another self-published writer doing something similar in Seattle.

It's possible that the writer is one of your neighbors.
