‘In the English tradition, publishers have always been jealous and possessive of their statistics (certainly profits, if not sales) and the story of the rise of Jacaranda Press has been described in an earlier chapter. By the late 1960s, Australian ownership had been lost. A succession of British companies from IPC to Reed International had moved in and local schools publishers, like Jacaranda and Cheshire, while surviving, were finding their new masters far from cooperative.’(Introduction 325)
