Once you find a publisher its important to get an agent. This book will save time and money.
  Writing a book? Then you better have this book!!! ( stuart_gustafson-author )
I have written and published books, and I have a literary agent in New York City. But I keep the Guide to Literary Agents on my desk right by my computer. This book is such an essential source of information for new writers as well as for published writers.

Not only is there an enormous listing of literary agents (including contact information, preferred genres, recent books they've sold, terms, etc.), there is also a nice listing of publicists, conferences you might attend, and some concise informtion on sending your query letters.

You need this book -- don't write your first book until you have used this book!!

This is probably the third edition of this book that I've purchased, and I finally figured out that the book can't possibly list all the serious and competent literary agents. By the time you winnow the list down to the few who might be interested, based on their profiles, the list gets mighty thin. After trying several (for a few novels over the years) I finally decided to self-publish a very small quantity of books and treat my writing as a hobby. I'm much happier doing this than trying to deal with a publishing establishment that seems to change little from year to year. So I think the main problem this guide suffers from is simply lack of completeness.

I ordered 2 books, I was immediately informed by email that one of the books was not available and the other would ship in about 10 days. The book came in ten days and was in perfect condition. All in all a pleasant experiance.

The book was informative and was what I needed. I will purchase the 2008 edition unless I get an agent before then for my novel.
