First, you can buy a personalized copy of the book right here at http://Lantern-Media.com/signedbooks
It may actually cost less than the online bookstores too since their prices fluctuate based on the market. Paperback costs $15, while the hardcover costs $20.
Most, if not all the online bookstores carry it Amazon.com carries the paperback, hardcover, and Kindle versions Barnes and Noble Onlinealso carries the paperback, hardcover and Nook versions Borders carries the paperback and hardcover versions Authorhouse (my publisher) carries the paperback, hardcover, and e-book version
I am also finding that more and more physical Barnes and Noble bookstores are carrying versions of the book.

New Video - Origins of the Ducky Boys!
My book Lost Boys of the Bronx: The Oral History of the Ducky Boys Gang was originally intended to be a video documentary. The book was a much better project, but I had a LOT of footage from the video shoots, so I figure I'd put it up on Youtube so that it wouldn't go to waste!
