There actually are some high-exposure places where you could send these. I would send them, with a follow-up phone call and ask if I could be included in some publicity, or in some way have my name connected with this very important information.

Some suggestions:

1) Write an article about this and submit to CounterPunch. They currently have 20 million readers. They may be able to allow you to publicize your book there. At the very least, you will get incredible exposure to a very large readership that's going to be pre-screened favorable to your book.

2) Send a copy to Air America Radio. See if they can arragne a phone interview. They're currently doing that. They interview people all the time, and it's very interesting. I enjoy listening to the interviews. These people often have a website, or a book that they've just written. Really good media coverage.

3) Send a copy to Powell's Books in Portland (my city). Ask if you can be a part of an evening lecture, or a book signing event. That would be a great way to promote this book.

4) Possibly a daily newspaper. See if you can't find one that's slanted in our direction, rather than with the Rat-publicans who don't want this kind of important information out there.

5) Write an article for a magazine, like maybe The Nation. You'll be able to use the book as a source document, and will distill your own ideads.

Good luck!
