a spoor is a scent
a track or trail
a trace of an animal
up ahead.

Spoor Books is an independent publisher from Aotearoa New Zealand. The name is inspired by our whippet, Mishti Boy. Dogs read the world with their noses to the ground, using a spoor to trace where other animals have been and track where they’re going. The metaphor captures what books have been for readers: a way to spoor through the dense thicket of ideas towards imaginative clearings.
