Harry Harrison book looking for a publisher
Dear All,

A friend of mine has written a 40,000 word study on Harry Harrison, plus has the text of a long interview with him. He's seeking paper publication, but is having trouble finding a publisher. He's tried the big names. Can anyone suggest a small publisher?

My friend is based in the UK, but has substantial experience of the USA, so publishers on either side of the Atlantic would be welcome.

best wishes

Why would Harry Harrison have trouble finding a publisher?

Study of, not written by. Studies and biographies of writers, unless <very> big name, are hard to sell. They are usually printed by academic presses, and sell a few hundred copies, at most.

This is the guy who wrote the Stainless Steel Rat, right? I read that a long, long time ago.
