The Mid Engine Revolution - The Book

The following was just posted on Corvette Blogger about an official book detailing the development of the C8. Here is the link
[REVIEW] Corvette Stingray: The Mid-Engine Revolution - Corvette: Sales, News & Lifestyle (corvetteblogger.com)
I preordered from Barns and Noble about 2 weeks ago.
It will be interesting to see how it compares to "All Corvettes are Red" about the C5 development.

Does this mean this Book is actually coming out this time? I’ve lost track of how many release dates this book has had over the past year.

I’m with Zymurgy, ordered mine about a year ago off Amazon, another Covid related delay I’d assume.

My delivery date is Mar 4 - Mar 11.

Hopefully towards the front of that period. Major Amazon warehouses in the area.
