WHY PUBLISH?

Gunderloy, Mike (editor)

1989 / Pretzel Press

In 1989, Mike Gunderloy, the founder of Factsheet Five, compiled a 54-page booklet called "Why Publish?". Mike had done a column in the magazine in which he asked readers to submit responses to that question. The booklet is a compilation of the responses. Since it's long out-of-print and almost impossible to find, Mike graciously allowed Chip Rowe to convert Why Publish? to an Adobe PDF ebook format for free download.
