Hey, John—

 

So here’s the sample Gregg and Barrett wrote to (hopefully) give you a clearer sense of what the voice of the book—a book focused much more clearly on Gregg and his lens, and not trying to be encyclopedic or journalistic per se—would be.  Obviously this was done quickly, on the fly—basically they knocked this out last night, before Gregg headed back up to Boston.  But I like it, like how it drills down to give a more moment-by-moment sense of how the CoS ‘op’ come together, and also what it meant.  

 

Hope this is what you had in mind.  Either way, I’d be grateful if you can let me know your own thoughts as soon as possible.

 

Thanks—

Dan
