Long River Press

A book for every journey

Telling your story

Do you have a story to tell? We at Long River Press can help you bring it to life. We will capture the essence of your journey and tell it in a compelling way.

Whether a memoir of a life well-lived, or a business sharing its successes, we focus on the heart of the story – the people.

We are two highly experienced journalists who have published a range of books, including Mystery Creek Magic, the official fiftieth anniversary celebration of Fieldays, and Living Every Moment, marking the first forty years of Hospice Waikato.

We also offer a full book design service, and can advise on printers and printing cost, meaning you are fully in control every step of the way.
