It really demonstrates the complexity of immigration in Mexico. I would recommend reading Into the Beautiful North which is very similar in tone.

In any case, since I didn’t and don’t anticipate selling enough copies of the paperback to cover the cost of the copy I purchased for myself–which would require selling seven (7) of them–it’s probably not a good test case.

I suppose I could reprice some of my other books at $0 for the PDF and see if print sales are resurrected. Maybe an interesting experiment.

You can’t compare to print sales before and after since they were released together, but perhaps just compared to sales of other books in the past where you did not offer a free PDF. Just curious. Regards.
