About Dundurn Press

For thirty-six years, Dundurn Press has been fulfilling its mandate to publish quality Canadian books in a wide variety of genres for domestic and international markets. Established in 1972 by Kirk Howard, Dundurn has steadily grown from a small publisher of Canadian history, politics, biography, and current affairs into one of the largest publishers of adult and children’s fiction and non-fiction in Canada, expanding to include six imprints, ranging from mystery to junior and teen novels. During this time, books published by the Dundurn group have won or been nominated for a number of awards, including the Governor General’s Literary Award for fiction, non-fiction and translation.
