Hi Shamil,

You've asked a difficult question in my opinion. You can search our database here on the site of course, but I kind of doubt if we've any text book publishers. I'm assuming you mean a history text book. It's important to know what kind of readership the book was written for aand important to be specific about what kind of history i.e. American history, British history, Baltic history, Greek Orthodox history, Russian history, etc.

If I guessed right and it is a history class text book then I would google "Russian history text book publishers" for example and see what comes up. If it's a general population informative book on Russian history or world history then I'd google "Russian history publisher" or "world history publishers" etc.

I just tried googling a few of these and lots came up, but I can tell you that one of the best publishers in America is Riverside Press,
Boston, Mass.

I hope I've been of some help!

Peggy

Hi Peggy,
Thank you very much for this message, it is helpful. I am new in the field, and it was the request from my boss who wrote a book on the World History. He wants it to be published in English for general public. The main idea of the book is that we should look upon history not as much as the sequence of battles and rulers but rather the development of the human spirit and culture. I'll try the Riverside Press. I've looked through several publishers databases since I wrote the HelpMe message, and was even more confused. Thank you for your help! Best regards,
Shamil.

Hi Shamil,

We'd love to know if you ever found the right publisher. We're a database and always want to learn new publishers names and addresses.
