Encounter Books publishes serious non-fiction in the areas of history, religion, biography, education, public policy, current affairs, social sciences, and politics. We are dedicated to well conceived and well argued works that promise to stimulate dialogue and that will have a long shelf life in bookstores and libraries, as well as within the classroom.
We are looking for that new perspective on current events, with thoughtful reflection on permanent human realities, that can inform debate, and enlighten policy makers, teachers, commentators, and other readers. We will evaluate all potential projects carefully.
We will consider proposals, outlines, and/or sample chapters.
We only review materials submitted through an agency.
Submissions must include a self-addressed stamped envelope to receive a reply. Envelope size and postage must be appropriate to submitted materials if you would like them returned. Encounter Books does not accept responsibility for unsolicited manuscripts.
