Tony Collins has published over 1400 books, and racked up innumerable errors. Dozens of titles have failed. He’s been involved in a court case, overlooked bestsellers and offered bad advice. But he has always loved books, and the crafting of books. For more than forty years he has tried to publish books that make a difference. This is his tale.
'Quite frankly, Tony Collins' work is a sheer delight. His writing is crisp, clean, and in some cases quite beautiful. He shares with the reader not only an amazing career – lifetime, really – surrounded by books and writers. He also manages to convey the heart of a patient, kindly, and very passionate gentleman. A marvellous achievement. Highly recommended.' Davis Bunn, international bestselling author
'If you love books and publishing, you’ll enjoy this story about a life with words. Tony tells his tale with relish, perspective, and good humour.' Chip MacGregor, long-time literary agent and former publisher with Time-Warner
