The MidAtlantic Trailblazer - A GPS Trail GuideThis book is the author's first published work. From 1995 to 1998 it sold over 35,000 copies.... not bad for a self-published book. This first edition is currently out of print, and I am working on a revision to bring it up to speed with the latest GPS technology. There are approximately 50 copies left in the author's possession. This book is a classic, because it was the FIRST hiking and camping guidebook ever written that used the Global Positioning System to guide the reader down trails, to campsites and historical markers, and into remote areas of wilderness. The book was originally published by Telson Communications, Inc. (Telson USA), it was originally printed by Rose Printing Company. Featuring hand-painted (with Corel's "Paint" program) 7" x 10" full color covers, and acid-free paper, perfect bound, lay-flat binding, the book has become a much sought-after collector's item. Originally priced at $35.00, this book was in demand as far away as Australia, even though the camping / hiking trips were limited to New York and New Jersey, and part of Pennsylvania. The reason for the overseas demand was its excellent technical section, which taught the reader how to navigate using GPS receivers, and how to modify them for increased performance. Also included in the book are several recipes which are now on this web site, and a section on Murphy's Laws, Proverbs and Old Sayings, and other things that made the book a BLAST to read around a campfire. Included with the book was a 1.44MB diskette with a 50-page novella (which is being re-written and separately published), and a host of PC programs and articles about using GPS. The author has a few cases of the ORIGINAL book left. They are being sold WITH THE AUTHOR'S AUTOGRAPH for $100.00 each. Proceeds from the sales will be used to sponsor a child in a third-world nation via a Christian charity. In exchange for your Ben Franklin, you will have an AUTOGRAPHED COPY of THE FIRST GPS trail guidebook ever published, and the satisfaction that a needy child somewhere in the world, will have food and medical care. A hundred dollars is NOT a LOT of money. The LOT of these books (about 50 or so) will fetch about $1,500 more-or-less.... we can't change the world, but we CAN change one child's LIFE. Consider your purchase a gift, and don't worry about the tax deduction.... what did the Lord promise? He said, ".... bring all your tithes to the storehouse, that there may be neat in my house.... and test me, and see if I will not open the windows of heaven and pour out a blessing that you will not be able to contain it" (paraphrasing). To order your copy (or copies) you need to CALL ME (718) 440-1080 to RESERVE YOUR BOOK. This book is OUT OF PRINT, and is NOT available "on-demand" as the other books on this web site are. After you confirm that a book is available for you, you need to send a personal check or money order payable to the author. David Todeschini - 32-30 60th Street, Suite B-1, Woodside, NY 11377 The REVISED (second) EDITION of this book - which will actually be a complete re-write - It will be available sometime in 2007.... time permitting.
