A New Lottery Book is Released, “Lottery: A Guide to American Lotteries”

My newest book has just been released, and I’m proud of it because it’s not your run-of-the-mill lottery books.

99 percent of lottery books (and there are a fair number of them) fall into two categories. One, and by far the largest, are systems books. Lottery wheels, how to win, etc. The other, smaller category, are a few winners writing their autobiographies or scholarly analyses of the lottery business.

I set out to write an entertaining book that would appeal to both beginners and long-time players.

If you play the lottery a lot, as I do… it’s sometimes hard to believe that new players find it confusing. So I tried to do an easy to read how to play… and I cover games around the nation, many, you might not have heard of.

The largest part of the book is comprised of stories…hopeful winners stories. Those stories came from official lottery press releases and personal interviews I had with winners in my 10 years in the business.

YES, this is postive book about lotteries and I made no excuse for it.

100 million people play lotteries at least once a year.

They all want to win. This book is about many winners and I hope it inspires people to play, but play responsibly.

I also cover scams (and how to avoid them), lotteries in the movies (and how lotteries have been portrayed), lottery pools (and how to form them), the colonial history of lotteries, and many many other angles.

I really want people to enjoy the book.

It has just been released, and is now available at www.amcpub.com/lottery and may be ordered on www.amazon.com, though it will not be available for a few days.

Barnes and Noble soon. May also be ordered through bookstores.
