Thompson's book is a hot item

If you have a copy of Thompson's book, you might want to put it on Amazon.com or ebay. You might make a tidy profit:

Other presidential contenders have sold more books, but none of their books have sold for as much as Fred D. Thompson’s.

Mr. Thompson’s amble toward the Republican race has sent the price of used copies of his long-forgotten, out-of-print 1975 memoir soaring to $199.35 on Amazon.com’s network of used-book dealers, providing a gauge of his appeal as a candidate, if not as an author.
