Vertebrate Publishing is a Sheffield-based independent publisher of outdoor adventure narratives and guides. 

We aim to inspire readers of all ages to get outside and enjoy the natural world. We are the UK's largest publisher of mountaineering narratives, publishing both new books and revitalising classic titles about the world's best known mountaineers; and the fourth biggest publisher of cycling books with a range of guides to the best road and traffic-free cycling in Britain. We also produce a range of pocket-sized mountain biking, running and walking guides (including our popular Day Walks series), which cover many of the UK's national parks and Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, as well as climbing guides, photography and wildlife books.
