This is a book we typeset last year, published to commemorate the bicentenary of the bishop’s birth in Denmark. He grew up to become prime minister of Denmark, unfortunately at the time the Danes lost the provinces of Schleswig and Holstein to Prussia – an event which precipitated his resignation and emigration to New Zealand. To the banks of the Manawatu River, to be exact.
Although Monrad returned to Denmark after only a few years, several of his children remained, as did his collection of prints, which he gifted to the government and became the nucleus of Te Papa’s art collection.
This is not the cover that was chosen for the book, sadly, but it was the one we preferred.

Covers of Ko Aotearoa Tenei: Te Taumata Tuatahi, the layperson’s version of the Waitangi Tribunal’s report on the Wai 262 ‘flora and fauna’ claim.
In July the Waitangi Tribunal’s released the report on its inquiry into “claims concerning New Zealand law and policy affecting Maori culture and identity” – the Wai 262 claim. Nearly 20 years in the making, it helpfully comes in two versions, and the shorter – Te Taumata Tuatahi – is both readable and affordable.
Richard helped with typesetting and designed the covers.
You can buy the report here, or read it online here.
This is the last of the New Zealand Alpine Club’s Southern Alps climbing guides. It’s not published yet – you’ll have to wait until September to buy a copy – but it’ll be worth the wait, as it describes pretty much every alpine and transalpine route between Arthur’s Pass and Aoraki Mount Cook National Parks.
The cover image by Geoff Spearpoint is a classic alpine view of Mt Evans from the Wilkinson River, in Westland.

The New Zealand Alpine Club's annual report, 2009
The New Zealand Alpine Club has around 3000 members and is New Zealand’s main organisation representing climbers. This is the cover of their annual report for 2009, which we produced.
Okay, the title of this post is a bit obscure. But that boulder in the photo looks kind of like an asteroid. Sort of.

In Business, October-November 2009
In Business, the business magazine we help put together, has gone national – with an international focus.
The latest issue has Icebreaker CEO Jeremy Moon sparking out on the the cover – inside he ponders his role as a ‘thought leader’ for the company he founded.
But for our money, possibly the most intriguing story is an interview with Jack Yan, publisher of internal fashion mag Lucire magazine, among other things: “I saw being first as a way to leapfrog all that negativity that used to drag me down.”
