AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'I started working for Angus & Robertson in my university days, around 1927. At that time they were booksellers, publishers and printers, but I worked part-time in the bookselling side. After I took my degree I became full-time, working for some years in various departments of the bookshop at 89 Castlereagh Street. I also worked at Halstead Press, the company's printing arm, where I learned typesetting on a linotype machine. Later on in the 1930s I joined the publishing side.' (Introduction, 10)
