Lord of Publishing: A Memoir
“Sterling Lord has always seemed to me one of the last real gentlemen in the book publishing business, so courtly, gracious and calm that it’s hard to believe that any author ever screamed at him, but this and many other revelations in his book, prove that he is a consummate storyteller as well as a virtual institution after more than sixty years of agenting.Anyone who wants to know how the book business works (or used to work) ought to read this book. I had a great time reading it.” —Michael Korda
