Descrizione libro Hardcover. Condizione: Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Good. 294 pages. Ex-libraryPublishing attracts dedicated individual s who work beyond the call of duty or financial justification to write, publish, sell, distribute, and account for something they love. In New Zealand, there has not been a more dedicated bunch o ver so long a time as the people at Reed. Whare Raupo is an insid er's guide to what created and sustained the House of Reed from i ts origins as a religious bookselling hobby in Edwardian Dunedin in 1907 to Reed Publishing (NZ) in 2007. Gavin McLean spent six y ears with unfettered access to the records and current workings o f Reed. In addition to interviews with the Reed family, previous and current staff, authors and those in the wider book trade, he read in its entirety the usual daily correspondence of more than 40 years between Reed uncle (Alfred Hamish), who founded the firm , and nephew (Alexander Wyclif, or 'Clif'), who made it the bigge st publisher in Australasia. The result is the most comprehensive and frank history ever written of a New Zealand publisher. Dedic ated people are also passiouate people, and Whare Raupo will take you behind the scenes to the great achievements and crises of th e country's premier publisher, the clashes of personality, the la shes of genius, the financial ups and downs, and the authors whos e work has entered the national lexicon. In its first 25 years A. H. Reed built up a prosperous business specialising in Sunday Sch ool supplies, branching into secular publishing after A.W. boldly established a Wellington office in teh midst of the Depression. Stories from its second and third quarter-centuries are the stuff of publishing legend, which McLean explores with verve. Here you will meet authors such as Denis Glover, Barry Crump, Mona Anders on and Janet Frame, as well as the editors who kept them in order , and the presses rolling. The most recent 25 years have marked u nprecedented change to the industry, and like all of the nation's large book publishers Reed is now in international ownership. Un apologetically, the modern company keeps to the traditinos and re lationships built up by the Reed family and those who worked with them, while expanding into new fields of opportunity. More than the story of a single firm, Whare Raupo exlores the multi-faceted process of making and selling books, and the personalities invol ved, with a wealth of illustrations that recreate the spirit of R eed through the years.
