Lowell Mills -- new quilting book

I just bought "Quilt Sampler" magazine (Spring/Summer 2012) with the pink and chocolate 9-patch quilt on the cover.  On page11 is an advertisement for Marcus Fabrics, but mentions a new book  "Away from Home:  Quilts inspired by the Story of the Lowell Mill Girls"  by Nancy Rink.  Marcus Fabrics will have a fabric line called "The Mill Girls 1830-1850"  I hope the book has stories about some of these women, not just quilt designs!  Now, I need to go to Amazon to see if the book is available yet.
