Most people who want to publish a children's book are surprised to discover that a book filled with full color illustrations will cost more to produce than they can sell it for.

Don't know much about history? Americans are sometimes accused of having short memories and shallow traditions compared with older European nations. But in recent years history has become something of a national pastime. We can't seem to get enough of the past, and now the bestseller list includes titles such as the Pulitzer Prize winning Founding Brothers... One of the best ways attorneys can market their law office is to write a legal advice book.
