NZ Book Month finished on a high note with another Publisher's Road Show. This was held on 30/09/08 at Havelock North Library and was a great night enjoyed by 65 people. Reps from 5 publishing companies were present, plus staff filled in for one rep unable to attend because of illness.We were very pleased to have local historian Michael Fowler (see photo) as our special guest author talking about his new book "The Reel Story : a history of Hawke's Bay cinemas 1896-1996", as well as his experiences with publishing his two previous books.
