Yes?

Is it a guess?

We are still talking about John Illsley's book about DS, so, I don't get the question.

There are some temporaly covers of the book in the net. One of those reveals MK wrote the forewords!

I have to say I think the title of the book is corny.

Well, at least Mark wrote something! His foreword: "Everything you'll read in this book is a lie, don't believe it. Have a nice day" :lol

Or an alternative version: Mark: "Everything you´ll read in this book is the truth, believe it. Have a nice day." ;D

At least a few words by Mark would be nice. Let's hope it will come true.

Nice to see MK wrote a foreword. Should remind us not to make too hastily assumptions based on non factual information. We already had few pages full of negative comments about Mark’s disapproval of this book within this tread. But now it turns out that he actually was generous and helped John out by writing of few lines or pages in the book.

I will judge it after I read it. I don't expect anything other than two or three lines with a more or less funny ironic  old blokes statement and not really any deeper insight into his feelings or view. It might end with "it's a good vehicle to raise money for charity". But to put it onto the cover, it may help John to sell some more copies.

It's Mark Knopfler who really should write a book like this and who has the skills and capability to do it. But "No" is the usual answer.

Do we really want to have a book where he tells he used to smell catalogues and blowed the family radio?

Lol
