Riding the Wild, Perilous Waters of Amazon.com
Published: April 4, 1999
As the author of a new book, I am among those with warm feelings toward Amazon.com. My book received strong, initial reviews. But my publisher is a small house, with limited funds for marketing. When people ask where they can find my book, you bet I send them to Amazon. If that makes me a ''bovine missionary,'' so be it.
