============================================================

Here's the original info I was given.    Just to confirm that
publication will cease at Christmas so get one now while you can.
========================================================

I've been given permission to post the following promo for a Hawkwind
history book that I was recently involved in typing up.     Dave Brock,
I understand, already has a copy and Brian Tawn has seen and approved it
- so it comes with a good pedigree!

A detailed history of the original Hawkwind, down to the breakup in 1978

And, yes, I do know the folk involved in this and can reassure you that
Dave has been involved with writing this history for years now - simply
because of his deep interest in the band and enjoyment of their music.

However I would be grateful if you could please contact Gavin Wilson
(he's doing the mailing out of stuff) directly if at all possible,
rather than going through me.


Thanks!
