Well written book. Excellent information.,
By Eleanor Jacobs "literature and film aficionado" (San Francisco, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: This Business of Publishing (Paperback)
Mr. Curtis has been around the publishing business for many years and his commentary shows it. He provides searingly honest information that illuminates "warts and all." At the same time, his love of the industry comes through. And the last chapter is laugh out loud funny - and very telling.
