You can also purchase from Peter directly, but it is a tad old fashioned, LOL.

Any way you can get Peter to chime in here and denote which of these publications are still available from him? I understand some are out of print now...or at least that's what I've heard. Maybe Peter can clarify which ARE still available and the best way to obtain them. I'd be interested in that V2 painting guide in particular.

Thanks again!

Earl


Earl.

Hopefully, Peter can provide an update on the status of the 5th Edition of ROTW. The 4th Edition is long out of print and no suppliers, including the NAR, have any copies left.

Naturally, the "scalpers" online have a few copies available, at exorbitant prices.

Found a pic of the cover . . . First published in 1999, I think.

There's the scalpers, and then there are the guys who justify to themselves that posting scans of Peter's work all over the internet is OK. Peter is not updating the status of the 5th edition fast enough for them.

You got that right! And to emphasize just how arrogant, how abusive of Peter's legacy these guys can be over on the other forum. I mean, some of these guys just have not a shred of respect.
https://www.rocketryforum.com/threa...2/#post-1967265

Highlights:

Dave, stop trolling and please stop posting drawings on this forum out of respect for the author (Peter Alway).

This is not your decision to make, Dave. The right thing to do is to let Peter decide for himself.

Let Peter decide the future of his work. He has earned that, and does not need unsolicited assistance from any of us to do so.

Dave, please give Peter the respect he is due, and just stop this. ROTW 5 will come out when it comes out ...

You're beating a dead horse, as usual. Peter & I resolved the situation months ago, amicably.
