About the Publishers

Shetland Publishing Company was incorporated in November 1978 and since then has produced on average one book per year on Shetland and on what is of interest to Shetlanders. In this time the Company has undergone metamorphoses as great as the Anthology itself, the most recent in 1993; and it is now with enormous pleasure that the new Shetland Publishing Company presents A Shetland Anthology, the most considerable anthology of Shetland poetry yet.

The publisher is proud to inherit and further the fine name of the Company and its partners during most of its history: Sandy Cluness, Jimmy Irvine, John Graham and my father, Hamish Bowie.
