One of Canada's most prominent publishers, Key Porter Books
Limited is known internationally for its high quality illustrated books, and at
home for its mainstream books of national interest. In the words of the Right
Honourable Jean Chretien, Prime Minister of Canada, "since coming into being,
Key Porter has established itself as a pre-eminent publishing house, providing
an invaluable vehicle for Canadian authors to bring voices to a national
audience."
Key Porter Books was founded as a joint venture of Anna Porter
and Key Publishers in 1979 and incorporated in 1984. Key Porter Books publishes
about 100 titles per year and has over 500 titles in print. Areas of
specialization include Canadian politics, fiction, history biography, books on
environmental and social issues, children's literature, health, wildlife,
conservation, sports, business, cookbooks and photography.
