Since you have MS Publisher, why not use it. I find it does a great job. Gus Enyedy, gusenyedy@aol.com, who is a member of Neo-Cag and also East Cuyahoga Gen Society did a great hard back book on his family and WW II activities using MS Publisher. I am sure he would be glad to give you some pointers. I have done 50-75 page booklets with it and I find it does all I need. I have a Mac with Adobe Indesign and at my age I find it is to involved to learn so I stick with MS Publisher on the PC. I also find that I can do almost everything I need to for newsletters on the Mac using "Pages" . It does a great job and is easier to work with pictures and it saves directly to PDF format to take to the printer. When using Publisher and importing pictures try to keep the Pixel count down to what is only necessary to display a good picture for print or you file size will be great and overload your PC. I save files as a post script and convert to PDF to take to the printer.
