They certainly are expensive.  I used to be a developer on Arbortext's Epic 
product, now marketed as PTC Arbortext Editor.  It would be a good tool for 
this, but it is very expensive.  It's also essentially Windows only (there used 
to be a Linux version, but I'm not sure it's still maintained).  Things like 
that would perhaps be overkill for this anyway.  They are designed for very 
complex documents, like an aircraft parts manual.  Because of this, they assume 
a support staff that can help with setup and customization.

There is a page at 
<http://www.firebirdsql.org/manual/docwritehowto-docbook-authoring-tools.html> 
that lists a few cheap or free DocBook editors.  Also 
<http://www.happy-monkey.net/docbook/gui-editor.html> claims there is a free 
personal edition of XMLMind's XXE, but I can't find it.
