AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Andrew Fabinyi (1908-78) came to Australia from Hungary in 1939 as a refugee from Nazism. He had worked for a bookseller in Budapest, and first found employment in Melbourne with Frank Cheshire, owner and head of the FW Cheshire bookshop in Little Collins Street. After war service in the Australian army, where he became responsible for the Australian Army Education Service libraries, he returned to FW Cheshire, where he developed both the bookselling and the publishing activities of the business. When the separate company FW Cheshire Publishing Pty Ltd was established, he became general manager. (Introduction 19)
