rat haus reality press is dedicated to supporting independent bookstores. Megastores like amazon.com represent a phenomenon that may or may not trounce something in the human spirit we can ill "afford" to lose. See "Book Brawl: Independent bookstores, the Internet, chain stores and discount houses duke it out" by Patricia Holt (Whole Earth Summer 99), for an thorough articulation of this situation.

For people who have to have it now, the Capitola Book Cafe has one copy that can be purchased over the phone with a credit card. The more copies bought through this channel, the more copies they will stock in their store. Bookshop Santa Cruz is another local story that stocks copies. Andy Winiarczyk also has copies in stock at The Last Hurrah Bookshop. As more local, independent book stores carry USO, their URLS will be included here. (Invite your favorite independent to carry it.)

But please be clear: if you purchase through rat haus reality press, you are supporting my work in the most direct manner possible instead of through the above to which I sell copies at the wholesale price.
