'Victory Books, Melbourne University Publishing's new imprint, is proudly commercial. It is popular, Australian in focus and squarely attuned to our readers' tastes. Reporting on the nation's criminal classes, our passion for sport and the life and times of the rich and famous, the happy and the not so happy; Victory Books are about the here and now.'
