Mrs Harriman Publishes From Dream to Seattle Victory
Mrs Alice Harriman, a Seattle transplant and self made publisher, built a modest start into a two city office operation after publishing Songs O the Bound at her own expense.

She rejects domestic stereotypes, stressing devotion to work over traditional roles and credits bold risk taking for her success as publisher.
