MacLehose honoured at LBF

By Neill Denny
Publication: Bookseller
Date: Wednesday, March 8 2006
Presenting the prize, Bloomsbury’s Liz Calder described him as "a publishing genius" who made Harvill a genuinely international imprint, now publishing from over 30 languages.

MacLehose said he was "humbled" by the award, and paid tribute to his readers, translators,

authors and shareholders but "most of all to my wife".
