Books-a-Million in Kennesaw, Georgia: Not a copy in sight. A helpful clerk looked all over for a copy for me. He patiently explained, “Sometimes people hide books like this one or Coulter’s” (to be fair to B-a-M, he did not say Books-a-Million employees hid the books; I inferred it, but he may have meant customers hid them).

Mark Steyn’s book was in a stack on the floor. Covered with about 10 copies of another book.
