Think I ordered mine quite early so maybe the sooner you ordered it the sooner it is sent out to you?

The first few photos are more shots from previous photo shoots like the Culture Slut one, the Holy Bible uniform shoot...the rest are a mixture of candid snapshot type things from tours etc and landscape, arty photos. It's a nice mix I think!

Apparently Amazon sent mine off yesterday so should arrive soon I didn't think it was out until the 17th but I'm not complaining. Can't wait to get it in the post!
What is the text like by Nicky for the photos, or doesn't he comment on all of them? I can imagine being like two or three words for most stuff.

There are a few pages from Nicky and Jeremy Deller at the front of the book, and a few pages from Nicky at the back. The photos are numbered, but not captioned on the page. A few are captioned on the white bit of the polaroid, mostly date, photographer, maybe a comment or two.

Can't remember the exact date, it wasn't long after it came up on their official site about pre-ordering it anyway.

they're only obliged to get it to you by the release date which means shipping it 2-3 days earlier. They must've brought the date forward as they were available at the HMV signings. Amazon is still listing the publication date as 17 November but if i order it today i get it by this friday

Aye, they've obviously decided to get them out a bit earlier.
