5.0 out of 5 stars Practical advice that works, June 5, 2008
By 
Helen Carey (Melbourne, Australia) - See all my reviews

This review is from: How to Market Books: The Essential Guide to Maximizing Profit and Exploiting All Channels to Market 4th edition (Paperback)
Alison's book just WORKS - it is full of really practical advice from a many-times published author who has been there, done that. She knows how the publishing industry works - I believe she's a University lecturer on the subject, too, so she knows what she's talking about - and how to make it work for you. And as a bonus she's an exceptionally clear writer. I guess if you're reading this you're interested in finding a great book on how to market books. Well, you've just found it!
