Tauris Parke Paperbacks

Tauris Parke Paperbacks is committed to publishing books that both inspire and are inspired by the world around us, focusing particularly on travel writing, history, biography and memoir. From past to present, from previously published gems to new discoveries, and from Morocco to Antarctica, Iran and beyond, our books are united by a sense of place and by the individuality and pioneering spirit of their authors. We are proud to have published Pulitzer Prize-winners, literary giants, cult writers and legendary travellers and we continue to be stimulated by today’s fresh new voices – those who are discovering their own paths and shaping stories that challenge, inform and illuminate. Representing classic writings of the past, as well as some of the boldest and brightest talents of the present, Tauris Parke opens a window onto a whole new world of discovery.

“Music is the companion of joy, the balm of sorrow.” And so are certain books, especially so when they are great ones returned from obscurity. So an appreciative flute of Tattinger Brut Millesime ’02 (perky, intelligent, with a hint of money) to Tauris Parke Paperbacks for reprinting, to date, 88 iconic travel narratives of the past. No matter the author, in each one you’ll find an inexhaustible fund of erudition, wit, and literary style.
