Description
Wild and Woolley - A Publishing Memoir is Wilding's rollicking account of those heady bohemian years in the 1970s and 80s, charting the growth, the experiments, and the development of this innovative small press against a background of social upheaval and cultural change in Australia. It is peppered with irreverent anecdotes and details - their publication of the best-selling manual All About Grass, the purchase of decommissioned panel vans for 'urgent book deliveries', accounts of long and boozy book launches - and with vivid portraits of some of the most important literary figures of the time.
