At Quartermain Publishing, we champion the kind of books that linger in the mind long after the final page is turned. A boutique British publishing house, we focus on craftsmanship, careful curation, and close collaboration with writers who have something distinctive to say. Our list is intentionally selective: every title we produce must earn its place through originality, depth, and an unmistakable voice.

We believe that publishing should feel personal. That’s why we work closely with authors from the earliest spark of an idea through to the finished book, offering thoughtful editorial guidance, transparent communication, and a genuine investment in each project’s success. Whether developing a debut novelist or supporting an established writer exploring new territory, we approach every partnership with patience, respect, and an eye for detail.

Our books celebrate the tactile pleasure of print: each publication is crafted with care, reflecting our commitment to quality over quantity. While we embrace modern production tools and digital distribution, we remain convinced that a well-made book is an object worth cherishing.

Quartermain is rooted in Britain’s long tradition of independent publishing, yet we are outward-looking and globally minded. We seek stories that cross borders, challenge assumptions, and illuminate overlooked perspectives. Our mission is simple: to publish work that resonates, intellectually, emotionally, and aesthetically, with readers who value thoughtful writing and finely made books.

For authors, agents, and readers who share this vision, we welcome you to explore our catalogue, connect with our team, and discover the difference a small, dedicated publisher can make. Here, every book receives the time, attention, and care it deserves.
