Publishing Lives is written by Jerome Gold and published by Black Heron Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0930773411 (ISBN 10) and 9780930773410 (ISBN 13).

In Publishing Lives, publishers from 31 independent presses talk about how they came to publishing and why they stayed ( or didn't), the mistakes they made, their relationships with authors, the problems of growth, definitions of success, why they do or do not seek grants, their relationships with distributors, bookstores, New York and Toronto, and each other. More than just a directory, Publishing Lives presents these publishers as the spiritual heirs of the nineteenth-century founders of the great New York houses.
