Duckworth

Duckworth encourages curiosity in our world through accessible and stimulating works of biography and memoir, popular science, psychology, and history. We also have a passion for compelling, impeccably researched historical fiction. Founded by the family of Virginia Woolf in 1898, Duckworth is one of Britain’s oldest publishers still under independent ownership.

 

We love Bookshop.org and the opportunity it provides for independent bookshops and publishers!
