NEW ZEALAND PUBLISHING APPOINTMENT
The new list will focus primarily on high quality non-fiction titles, the first of which will be published in 2009.
Melanie Laville-Moore, New Zealand Manager for Allen & Unwin said "At Allen & Unwin we have always been blessed with an amazing array of titles and authors courtesy of our Australian colleagues - many of which have performed strongly in the New Zealand market. We've been given the chance to build upon this at a local level, a prospect that the entire team is hugely excited by. Allen & Unwin remains a fiercely independent publisher and this is one of the key qualities that we'll be hoping to see shine through when our first books make it onto the shelves next year."
