Another book about MK

[El Macho]

I just wanted to promote this book by Franck Thuillier, a friend of mine, who writes a series of comics about MK's life (biography).
Franck wrote the texts, made all the drawings and spent a lot of time to make the first album (Before DS until 1979). http://www.amazon.com/Mark-Knopfler-dedicated-music-Straits-ebook/dp/B0131PT3EO/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1440969016&sr=1-1&keywords=franck+thuillier
here it's the english version, only available as a digital download.
It exists as a book (a real book) in French and Polish.
You should know that Mark read the book, corrected the mistakes Franck made. Some drawings made from very rare photos (some are from John Illsley's private collection).
Well it's a must have !
Franck is now working on the second album !
To contact Franck, here's his FB page https://www.facebook.com/franck.thuillier.5?fref=ts

I wrote him by facebook to tell him about lulu.com, the page I used to publish my book, thinking that might be helpful for him to publish his book in English, but he didnt answer me.

I don´t like ebooks, and I guess that as me, many more rather have it in a proper book edition.

I'll tell Franck that you sent him a message on FB.
He only edited an ebook in English because he doesn't know at all how many books he could sell and it's a big investment .
You could give him an advice !
Thanks Julio

That´s the good thing about www.lulu.com, every book is printed indivdually when someone order it, so Franck doesn´t need to have any book to sell, he doesn´t need any investment! he doesn´t have to do anything, except buy a copy for himself, check that it´s ok, and approve it to be sold in lulu, amazon etc

I am sure that I will like it!! Last time I went to London I didn't had such a guide! So when I dicovered by accident some MK related places like Angellucci's it was a great suprise for me so I want read about other places as well. I am pretty sure that I will visit London in the future (hope for a new tour) . I will write you about my impressions when I will receive the books. I am honored to be among such great fans with such passion about DS and MK's music. Have a nice time!
