Gordon Graham

After graduating from Glasgow University in 1940, Gordon Graham saw six years of war service in England, India and Burma. 

He returned to India in 1946 and spent the next ten years as a freelance newspaper correspondent and publisher’s representative in South East Asia.  This was followed by eight years in New York as International Sales Manager of the McGraw Hill Book Company. 

In 1963 Gordon Graham returned to the UK and for the next twelve years ran McGraw Hill’s book business in the UK, Europe, the Middle East and Africa. 

In 1975 he became Chairman and Chief Executive of Butterworths, the legal and scientific publishers from which he retired in 1990.  That year he founded LOGOS, a quarterly journal about the international book business. 

Gordon has written four books, of which the most recent is his military memoir The Trees Are All Young on Garrison Hill.  He is the founder and now Honorary President of the Kohima Educational Trust.
