''Over My Shoulder: Reflections on a Science Fiction Era'' (Donald M. Grant Publisher) is [[Lloyd Arthur Eshbach]]'s 1982 memoir of [[sf]] book publishing in the 30s through the ’50s, which was almost totally the realm of the [[fannish]] [[small press]], set against his own background and life. 

[[Fantasy Press]], [[Gnome Press]], [[Shasta]], [[Prime Press]], [[FPCI]], and [[Arkham House]] were the kingpins of science fiction publishing three or four decades ago. From its details emerges a picture of a handful of men who accomplished things as fantastic in their own way as the fiction they published. With a 16-page photo supplement, index, and checklist of published books.

"an essential...the only in-depth inside portrait of the postwar specialty publishers and personalities."—[[Jack L. Chalker]] & [[Mark Owings]]
