My first one was $10.00, hardcover. The revised edition was $15.00, They won’t even talk to me about a third because I don’t have an agent. I didn’t on the first two and it has passed “first reader”, in fact if all sales had been in the first year, it would have been officially a “best seller”, which reference books seldom are. A new edition would be over 25% new material because of the way things have changed, and sales to libraries alone would cover the cost.
