And has anyone any suggestions for going about it without a huge financial investment up front?

first suggestion and only suggestion.
Don't do it.
Pursue traditional publishing.

I've a book that's virtually self-published. The fellow just typed it out on his typewriter and xeroxed the copies/editions. He hand arranged each page gave them the book homemade binding to finish it off. It was pretty nice, but it is best to have a publisher do all that for you.
First, before proceeding, he had it copywrited to protect his work.

Do plenty of research on this subject for a few years or more.
Look at what you can do and what you can't.
But don't be in a rush to self-publish if you have to.
The majority of self-published authors do and they end up falling completely flat on their face as a result.

Of course. Many authors publish their books as ebooks. There's an initial cost, but not much compared to traditional printing houses.
