Hillsborough book status?

I tried to order the Shinsengumi book from Romulus Hillsborough off
Amazon and received (when I began to play my order) an April/May
target shipping date. This caught me off guard as the book was
technically supposed to have been released in the second half of
January.

Have any of you tried to dialogue with Ridgeback Press to find out
the situation? Their website hasn't updated with anything regarding
the upcoming release.

I find it rather puzzling... if anything, I would expect RP to have
excerpts or something to prompt folks to order the book.

Thx.

Yikes. Let me answer my own question. It seems that the information
has been updated.

The new date appears to be April 30, 2005 as opposed to Jan 15.

There is now a preview option available on the Amazon listing as well
at http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-
/0804836272/qid=1107806579/sr=8-1/ref=pd_bbs_1/104-8838532-4738363?
v=glance&s=books&n=507846

The new Hillsborough book is being published by Tuttle not Ridgeback
(which I _think_ Hillsborough owns or is affiliated with)
