Unlimited Publishing (UP):
"Move UP to the professional POD book publisher!"

UP applauds Lulu's 'no-cost-to-the-author' system for self-publishing. For authors who prefer to work with a publisher, UP uses Lulu's state-of-the-art technologies to publish top quality "print on demand" (POD) books, a substantial cut above typical POD book publishing fare. For qualified books, authors pay no fees of any kind, and receive generous royalties. In exceptional cases, modest advances may be considered.

UP has multiple printing and distribution outlets with the largest suppliers in the mainstream book publishing industry, and thousands of contacts with U.S. newspapers, magazines, radio and TV stations. As a result, many UP books receive major media coverage, solid critical review from literary and professional journals, and award nominations. Please see UP NEWS for documented reports. Our goal is to combine the best of both worlds: the speed and economy of POD, with the high standards of a mainstream book publisher.

Below are examples of UP's unique hybrid of high tech book production and distribution methods, combined with proven professional publishing practices. Please check back periodically to preview other UP books, which are featured on a rotating basis.

Let the Tail Go with the Hide: The Story of Ben F. Williams
LIBRARY QUALITY CASEBOUND HARDBACK: "I'm already reading it, and enjoying it immensely," wrote Ronald Reagan in 1985. "Ben Williams is the genuine article," wrote Tom Lea, acclaimed author of The Wonderful Country and The Brave Bulls, in his introduction to the first edition of this biography of a quintessential Southwesterner. Originally from Mangan Press, the first edition was a leather-bound showpiece with a real silver peso on the cover. It sold out years ago, but held enduring interest to historians, librarians and researchers. Unfortunately, copies were hard to find (and very expensive, thanks to the peso) until UP published a POD paperback in 2001. Now it can remain available, and affordable, for years to come. This premium quality hardback edition is not available from bookstores.
