Exactly 1 year ago we were in Edinburgh collecting the very first batch of books that we produced. It was a real moment of truth as to whether all the work that we had put in could be brought together. 1 year later as we reflect on what we have done and all of the things that

Some minor last minute delays. This will be released to the email list this Friday and to the general public on Monday. Still time to join the list and secure yours later this week.

Sadly more delays beyond our control, this may be tomorrow, this may be the middle of next week. It will be soon. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Other than the lignin which breaks down over time into vanillin and gives that classic old book aroma, the other great smell is the warmth of quality leather. You can fill you library with this by buying quality leather books and letting them mature with you over time.

Today we are launching our Pocketbook Philosophy series. This series was conceived under the inspiration of the late, great, Sir Roger Scruton to whom it is dedicated. Beyond imparting a formal education to his students, Scruton was keen to make them well rounded and cultured

"Beyond imparting a formal education to his students, Scruton was keen to make them well rounded & cultured.. To this end he was prone to making off-hand recommendations over the dinners in the garden room of London's Reform Club, that always followed our formal lecture session."

I have not read Schiller, but his writings on aesthetics were recommended to me recently. This might be a good excuse to get started.

For the avoidance of doubt, we are offering free shipping if you buy this book and any one other of our books. For European and international customers this means a saving of around €19/$32

I adore pocketbooks; to the point I actually prefer them over other formats. They're the best of both worlds: similar size to a mass market paperback, but hardbound so that it's far more durable and fancier! And you can never have enough philosophy books! Will check these out!

We made these specifically to smoothly fit the mac coat I wore during the time I was studying with Scruton. I was forever awkwardly carrying these books around and having them fall apart on me.

“With the good, the true, and the useful, man is merely in earnest; but with the beautiful he plays.” Scruton was fond of Schiller, quoting him often in his writings on beauty. Be sure to pick up one of these excellent editions of a book so important to his thought.

I have been reliably informed that it is in fact a saving of $34 based on current exchange rates. When you order, add another book into the basket and this will magically be deducted from the total cost of the order (this makes Hunger or Black Beauty 30-40% cheaper!)
