That is so interesting.  Good for her (the author).  I'll bet they make a
movie.

I looked up to see what I could find about the publishing history.  The
earlier edition was published by "Flap Jacket Press".  From their web site:
"Flap Jacket Press is an independent press located in New England and
specializing in authors who root their work in the locales, history, and
peoples of New England. Our current title (due out September 1, 2007) is The
Lace Reader. For more information about this book, please visit
www.LaceReader.com."

I was given a review copy to look over in May, but I'm afraid it wasn't at
all to my taste.  But I love to see lace and lace making getting some
publicity.  And it benefits the Ipswich Historical Society's Museum, too.  I
believe they are planning an exhibit around lace (and using the book in some
way).
