Summary: Alister Taylor Bankrupt (Press, 3 April 1985)
Alister Taylor, the publisher and writer known for the controversial "Little Red School Book," has been declared bankrupt by the High Court in Auckland. This ruling, made by Mr Justice Sinclair during a court session on Monday, follows a petition filed by commercial artist Kenneth Beatson, which cited an amount of $1,897. An additional bankruptcy petition from the Book Publishers' Association was subsequently withdrawn. Taylor, who has been based in Whangarei, gained significant recognition in the early 1970s for his work on the "Little Red School Book," which stirred national debate, as well as for producing the "Patricia Bartlett Cook Book." A date for an upcoming creditors' meeting will be announced shortly.
