Greetings All!

One of my stipulations when I agreed to go on 
Sabbatical in order to work in New Jersey is that 
I cannot let the AbolitionWear program go 
dormant.  If you have visited 
http://www.CUADP.org lately, then you have seen 
the notice that a new on-line catalog with new 
items is expected to be launched sometime around 
September 10.  Recipients of CUADPUpdate will 
have the first opportunities to use the new site when it is ready!

But for now, I'd like to offer you some very 
special deals on two NEW items that CUADP has a 
limited supply of:  The new book by Joan Cheever, 
and the Dead Man Walking CD Reissue/Concert DVD 
Package.  Only 20 of each are available.  Check this out:

BACK FROM THE DEAD: One Woman's Search For The 
Men Who Walked Off America's Death Row, by JOAN CHEEVER

This new book was officially released in the U.S. 
on July 2, the anniversary of Gregg v. 
Georgia.  Author Joan Cheever gave a talk about 
her book and the story behind it that night as 
part of the evening Teach-In series at the Fast & 
Vigil.  The film of that talk will hopefully be 
available soon.  In any case, the books didn't 
show up until the next day, which is how CUADP 
happens to have a case of hard backs.

I have yet to get to it, but my wife Beth is 
reading the book and enjoying it very much.  She 
says Joan is a good story teller and there are 
many interesting historical facts in the book.

NATIONAL PUBLIC RADIO aired an interview with 
Joan on Morning Edition Thursday morning:

>You can listen to the report at:

>On the Trail of Former Death Row Inmates
>
>Morning Edition, August 17, 2006 · Joan Cheever, author of Back from the
>Dead, followed former death row inmates who were released when the Supreme
>Court ruled the death penalty unconstitutional in 1972.
>
>Cheever talks to Steve Inskeep about what she found.

The cover price is $24.95.  CUADP will kick in 
shipping for a minimum suggested donation of $25 
(or more).  You can get a better deal on 
Amazon.com, but it would not be helping the 
movement.  See below for how to order!
