A Hundred Years of Allen & Unwin

Made available to mark the centenary of the establishment of George Allen & Unwin Ltd on 4 August 1914, this brief account tells the story of Allen & Unwin from the founding of George Allen Publishers in the 1870s through the arrival of Stanley Unwin in 1914 and the setting up of a Sydney office in 1976, which in turn led to the management buyout in 1990 and the emergence of Australia's largest independent book publisher.
