Allen and Unwin will publish Jonestown

Allen and Unwin has won the rights to publish Chris Masters’ book
‘Jonestown: The Magic and The Myth of Alan Jones.’

Masters, who yesterday told radioinfo he was close to finalising the deal, has praised the courage of the publisher: “I am pleased to be able to work with a publisher of the courage, character and calibre of Allen & Unwin.

“I am also appreciative of magnificent support during the past four years from ABC Books Manager, Stuart Neal.”

Further publication details will be announced soon, but the publishers are understood to be hoping to have the book out by Christmas.

Allen & Unwin is one of Australia’s leading book publishers and has been voted “Publisher of the Year” by Australian Booksellers six times.
