Anyone know when Rich Murphy's book is supposed to be available?

Supposedly early next month, I would guess that they want to have it available for the show in Denver -

If anyone is interested, a followup to my own question:

Just ordered from Amazon. They show a publication date of today (8/1/06), but don't have the book available for shipping yet. Estimated delivery is 8/11. Will post "review" upon arrival.

What is the name? I'd like to get one myself.

I just pre-ordered it on Amazon. Rich Murphy is my biggest influence as far as fly tying goes. Looking forward to it.

I hear he has a section on etiquette and way to greet others with a smile while on the water. Rich is always such a joy to meet on the water.....

There are none more cordial than Rich. Guy loves to rub elbows...

Rich is the man. I preordered the book just based on my limited (but very pleasant and highly educational) conversations with him at the Marlboro show the past few years. He really does enjoy helping people out. Ask him a question and he'll gladly spend 15 minutes explaining and demonstrating an answer.

And his RM Soft Short is a thing of beauty, but man, I don't think I have the chops to cast that sucker!

Just got an email response from Wild River Press regarding the delayed publication of Rich Murphy's book. "The book is in final layout now and we expect to send it to press after the first of the year."
