Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

294 pages. Publishing attracts dedicated individuals who work beyond the call of duty or fi nancial justification to write, publish, sell, distribute, and account for somet hing they love. In New Zealand, there has not been a more dedicated bunch over s o long a time as the people at Reed. Whare Raupo is an insider's guide to wh at created and sustained the House of Reed from its origins as a religious books elling hobby in Edwardian Dunedin in 1907 to Reed Publishing (NZ) in 2007. Gavin McLean spent six years with unfettered access to the records and current workin gs of 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 u sual daily correspondence of more than 40 years between Reed uncle (Alfred Hamis h), who founded the firm, and nephew (Alexander Wyclif, or 'Clif'), who made it the biggest publisher in Australasia. The result is the most comprehensive a nd frank history ever written of a New Zealand publisher. Dedicated people are a lso passiouate people, and Whare Raupo will take you behind the scenes to the gr eat achievements and crises of the country's premier publisher, the clashes of p ersonality, the lashes of genius, the financial ups and downs, and the authors w hose work has entered the national lexicon.

Reed built up a prosperous business specialising in Sunday School supplies, branching into secular publishing after A.W. boldly established a Wellington office in te h midst of the Depression. Stories from its second and third quarter-centuri es are the stuff of publishing legend, which McLean explores with verve. Here yo u will meet authors such as Denis Glover, Barry Crump, Mona Anderson and Janet F.…
