Ask HN: Is a lulu purchase of “On Lisp” legit?

3 points by iainctduncan 5y ago ↗ HN

Hi folks, I'd like to get a copy of "On Lisp". Can anyone verify for me whether purchasing a print of it on lulu.com is legit? As in, does this have Graham's permission and do whatever royalties the lulu system generates go to him?

Paul distributes the book for free http://www.paulgraham.com/onlisp.html (PDF download) so I assume he's not looking for further royalties.

Ok cool, presumably that means the free ebook version on lulu is authorized by him and the $10 is reasonable for lulu's printing service. thanks!
