Dean has decided to retire!  Which means Thomas Publications has closed its doors.  The <thomaspublications.com> page will remain up and running for a short time longer.  BUT, Dean and I are still out here, and I have reactivated <civilwarprojectiles.com> and will set that webpage to sell bullets, cartridges, and a very small selection of bullet reference books.  Check in there and watch the page grow and fill out as I add bits and pieces to it.

Congrats to Dean! 

Also glad to hear you got the old URL back from those Chinese website hostage takers.

Have heard rumors of this since the summer. Congrats to Dean!

Will all of the current books be out of print now or is someone else purchasing the rights?

Dean told me he sold his publishing business so presumably the titles will be available as long as they are in stock or economically viable to reprint.  Jim may have more to share when he logs back in here.

Some of the reference books will remain available at the re-activated www.civilwarprojectiles.com webpage.
