Options to Translate a German Book Into English

You may wish to have your book translated to another language prior to submitting it to an editor or publishing house. Publishing companies may also wish to have a book translated from one language to another to be able to sell it in multiple countries. It's important to understand the copyright laws that protect books, both in the U.S. and internationally, especially if you wish to translate a book for which you do not own the copyright. There are many options for those interested in translating a book from German to English.
