We may agree to disagree, but it still does not change the fact that anyone wishing to buy "Unfit For Command", cannot find it, as certainly the damand is there, but somehow the supply is not.

I didn't say that producers are always correct. I just pointed out that they make assumptions based on what they see in the market, and make rational decisions about how many copies to print.
The other point is that the demand for the swiftboat book was almost completely unanticipated. No doubt copies of that book are being printed as we speak, and in large numbers.
