Rocky Mountain Books' Publishing Program
The goal of Rocky Mountain Books is to publish accurate and informative guides to the Canadian Rockies and other areas of Western Canada. We are always looking for new authors who have ideas for books that fit within our guidelines.
Please keep in mind we do not publish novels, poetry, children's fiction, etc.
If you are an author interested in publishing with us, and your idea meets the above requirements, we would like to hear from you. However, please do not send us a complete manuscript. Instead, send us a proposal for your book and, if possible, an outline with a sample chapter. We will contact you if we wish to see an entire manuscript.
For further information on submitting a proposal or manuscript to us, see our Author Guidelines.
For information on a distributor of our books close to you, see our International Distributors.
