LOS ANGELES, CA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 12/19/07 -- Hannover House, the book publishing label of Empire Film Group, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: EFGU), has acquired the worldwide publishing rights to the new Barr McClellan book, "Made in the U.S.A.," an analysis of the long-term economic and political effects of international outsourcing. Based on advanced orders and support from key retailers, Hannover House predicts that sales of the April 2008 release could propel the book to the top of the non-fiction book charts.
"The interest in this book and the support from consumers and book retailers has been overwhelming," said Eric Parkinson, C.E.O. of Hannover House and Empire Home Entertainment. "Almost daily, news reports of defective and dangerous foreign made products have drawn attention to the declining manufacturing base in America. Consumers are beginning to realize that America's wealth is not only being exported, but that the products being purchased from foreign manufacturers are often substandard."
Author Barr McClellan interviewed dozens of top economists and business professionals and conducted extensive research and trade analysis. The consensus results are presented in "Made in the U.S.A." and draw a solid, fact-based argument for supporting sales of U.S. made goods. McClellan's previous release, "Blood, Money & Power: How L.B.J. Killed J.F.K." (Hannover House, 2003), sold over 100,000 copies in its first month of release and reached the New York Times Book Review chart and hit the number one spot for Amazon.com. One of McClellan's sons, former White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan, is also releasing a book in April entitled "What Happened," based on his work inside the Bush administration.
Retailers supporting the April 9, 2008 release of "Made In The U.S.A." include Barnes & Noble, Books-a-Million, Borders Group / Waldenbooks, Costco, Hastings, Hudson Group and many others according to Hannover House and wholesaler NBN Books.
"Made in the U.S.A." will be priced at $24.95 suggested retail, and is 306 pages in hardcover format. ISBN is 0-9637846-8-4 / UPC 7-61450-95552-3.
