Often the author does not choose the images. These are chosen by the
editor who is assigned the work at the.
publishing house.
The publishers have rights and permissions people who will choose and
then work with the various museums, archives, and libraries to get the
permissions and to choose the best possible images (b/w or color) for
the book.
Often limits are set as to what will be paid or how many images will
be allowed. Costs for reproducing images will also vary as to if the
press is a for profit press or a non-profit press and how many copies
will be printed.
If the book is accepted, then the editor assigned will explain all
this to the author.
