WELCOME TO OUR AUTUMN 2023 CATALOGUE

Dear reader,

The team at Elliott & Thompson is delighted to be sending you a catalogue of our forthcoming titles. In a period of turbulence, we offer a range of new and established historians, memoirists and experts to our booksellers and readers to help illuminate the past, present and future of the times we are living in, as well as bring some light relief. For our history readers, we have Evan Thomas’s Road to Surrender, about the dropping of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima, and Luck of the Draw, a memoir by a Second World War Airforce Bomber. We also have Politics, But Better, by social commentator Tatton Spiller and Reboot, exploring the overwhelming challenges and opportunities we face when interacting with new technologies. In our nature writing list, which includes James Aldred’s Wainwright winner Goshawk Summer, we have The Language of Trees, an outstanding collection edited by Katie Holten, and a new anthology by Waterstones Book of the Month author Nancy Campbell – Nature Tales for Winter Nights

This is just a small portion of our exciting new books publishing from June–December 2023 and we look forward to working with our friends and partners in the UK and around the world to launch these talented authors.

Here are just a few of the positive things that people have been saying about our recent titles:
