Taurus Publishers

Taurus Uitgewers (Taurus Publishers) was an underground publishing house.

It was founded in 1975 by the writers and academics John Miles, Ampie Coetzee and [[Ernst Lindenberg]] in the face of the censorship rife in the country in the 1970s-1980s.

The founders were later also joined by Gerrit Olivier, Tienie du Plessis and Hans Pienaar.
