When you purchase a book having this imprint—

—you assist in the development of a field too long neglected in this country—a field capable of supporting many workers in arts and crafts.

That New Zealand has bred writers of distinction will be denied by no well-read person. Why, then, have we exiled them if they would live by the pen?

Are we, as individuals and as a nation, so immature that we are incapable of recognising and encouraging artistic worth?

We believe not!

Hence, our aim being to search out the genuine literary metal within our shores, we are prepared to accept the judgment of New Zealand on this and our subsequent publications.

Tastes differ—so do the subjects and styles of our authors. No one book will appeal to all classes of readers. Should the present work prove to be “not your type” we are confident that you will recognise its artistic merits, nevertheless.
