What is the financial liability of the Author?
The financial liability of the Author extends principally to costs involved in the securing of permission in relation to the reproduction of illustrations and other material in the text, and in copy-editing over and above the routine practice of the Imprint (e.g. in the case of text revised and requiring fresh scrutiny). The Imprint will cover the costs of ordinary publicity and promotion, though extraordinary initiatives here may require a subvention. We are informed by the Printer that illustrations in excess of twenty are chargeable, so this too will fall to the Author.
