There's been a major shift in New Zealand independent publishing this week. Auckland publisher Upstart Press has purchased the entirety of New Holland Publishing, including their extensive backlist of Aotearoa non fiction titles.
Upstart Press was formed in 2013 by former Hachette NZ Managing Director Kevin Chapman. Upstart has been publishing New Zealand non-fiction, fiction and children's books for a decade now. They're also a distributor and Kevin isn't shy about his ambitions for NZ independent publishing.
