Independent Highland Publishing
Books shaped by story, place and lived experience
Dalcairn Press is a small, carefully run independent imprint in the Scottish Highlands, publishing illustrated local history, folklore, humane true stories and narrative non-fiction.
The list
Three titles, each rooted in place
Local history, a warm true-life story and a forthcoming examination of everyday complaint, each written with close attention to the places and people behind it.
Illustrated local history
Echoes of the Landscape
Illustrated Scottish local history, folklore, archaeology and hidden places, drawn from the ground beneath our feet.
Warm true-life story
Tiger, King of the Sofa
An illustrated, warm and humorous true-life story centred on a cat and life in the Scottish Highlands.
Forthcoming non-fiction
Customer vs Corporation
Forthcoming narrative non-fiction examining complaints, corporate systems and the consumer experience.
Our approach
We publish slowly, and with care
Some stories are rooted in local history and hidden places; others start much closer to home. Each title begins with something worth looking at more closely, and each book description says plainly what you will find inside.
