New title is finalized

After deciding that A VERY DIFFERENT SENATOR did not quite capture the man, we have settled on a new title for the biography:

AN UNCOMMON MAN
The Life and Times of Senator Claiborne Pell

And that's not all that's happening as we move toward October 2011 publication -- the book is now in copy-editing, the marketing plan is taking shape, and I am having a new web site designed. We have selected two photo inserts and secured permission from The Providence Journal and other sources to use some great archival shots. Those and many more will be on the new web page's slideshow. The web address will remain the same, however: And so will the bio email account: pellbook@gmail.com

We also are beginning to plan the book launch party, at Salve Regina University's Pell Center (expect lots of noteworthy people, could be THE political event of the season!) and other appearances and events. Stay tuned as the fall approaches...
