ABOUT THE UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON PRESS
|
|
 The Press traces its origins to 1915, when Edmond Meany's Governors of Washington, Territorial and State was issued. The first book to bear the University of Washington Press imprint, an edition of The Poems of Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey edited by Frederick M. Padelford, appeared in 1920. Since that time the Press has published approximately 4,400 books, of which about 1,400 are currently in print. Today we publish about 60 new titles each year.

Greetings!
The University of Washington Press is pleased to offer our Fall/Winter 2012 digital, interactive seasonal announcement catalog. As with our previous digital catalogs, this one is not a pdf and it does not require any additional software to download or use, but it does help us reduce our carbon footprint by using less paper to introduce our new lists of books.
Don't forget to check out our new video trailers for Four Thousand Hooks, Nisei Soldiers Break Their Silence, Oregon's Doctor to the World, Bartering with the Bones of Their Dead, and Car Country.
All the best,
Rachael Levay
