First Look – No Safe Harbor

On January 15 24 (publisher issues), the United States Pirate Party (USPP) will be launching its first book, titled No Safe Harbor: Essays about Pirate Politics. It will not only be offered in eBook formats free of charge, but you can buy it in paperback from Amazon.com

The book will be a collection of essays, some you will have seen before, others written especially for the book, along with comic strips from Nina Paley. As a special bonus, we have even included the UN Declaration on Human Rights, because documents like that are handy to have available.

We’ve already had some of the proofs, and they’re looking rather nice, as you can see in these photographs.







So mark your calendars, and get ready to read 250 pages of political joy.
