Vertebrate Publishing

Vertebrate Publishing A crack team of climbers, cyclists, walkers, designers & photographers At Vertebrate Publishing we publish books to inspire adventure.
(1)

It’s our rule that the only books we publish are those that we’d want to read or use ourselves. We endeavour to bring you beautiful books that stand the test of time and that you’ll be proud to have on your bookshelf for years to come. The Peak District was the inspiration behind our first books. Our offices are situated on its doorstep, minutes away from world-class climbing, biking and hillwalki

ng. We’re driven by our own passion for the outdoors, for exploration, and for the natural world; it’s this passion that we want to share with our readers. We aim to inspire everyone to get out there. We want to connect readers – young and old – with the outdoors and the positive impact it can have on well-being. We think it’s particularly important that young people get outside and explore the natural world, something we support through our publishing programme. As well as publishing award-winning new books, we’re working to make available many out-of-print classics in both print and digital formats. These are stories that we believe are unique and significant – we want to make sure that they continue to be shared and enjoyed for generations to come.

Newly retired and immersed in the logistical and bureaucratic maze of planning an expedition to Chombu – an unclimbed Himalayan peak in the Indian state of Sikkim – Mick Fowler’s life is turned upside down by a cancer diagnosis.

In Eternal Alpinist, his fourth volume of climbing memoirs following Vertical Pleasure, On Thin Ice and No Easy Way, Mick describes – with his trademark dry wit – his determined and at times frustrating attempts to regain ‘mountain fitness’ and return to the places he loves most. Reaching Chombu with his climbing partner Victor Saunders becomes a constant focus during treatment and recovery.

Culloden Battlefield Inverness, Highlands
Tuesday, September 1 • 9 AM - 3 PM

Come along to meet local author John Burns and get a signed copy of his book, Bothy Tales!

If you are a lover of the Scottish outdoors and storytelling, then this author event is perfect for you! John Burns will be around for a chat about his adventures in the Scottish Highlands and to sign his book, Bothy Tales, about those adventures.

Bothy Tales is the perfect companion for The Last Hillwalker. In this collection of stories from the mountains and bothies of Scotland Burns delves deeper into his love of wild places. There are tales from his own experiences, some from his imagination, but always there is a sense of what it is to have an intimate relationship with wild places.

‘A mordant humour and a cast of friends and acquaintances enliven the stories.’ Chris Townsend

Mark Lambert has called into the VP office today to sign copies of his book A Man for all Mountains

In A Man for All Mountains, the long-awaited biography of Jack Longland, Mark profiles a climber, educator and broadcaster united by a single belief: that mountains, landscapes and ideas are at their best when shared.

Sir John Laurence ‘Jack’ Longland (1905–1993) was one of the defining figures of British mountaineering and outdoor education in the twentieth century – a man whose influence reached from the highest mountains of the world to the classrooms, airwaves and policy rooms of post-war Britain.

Packed with adventure, resilience and her trademark positive-ageing message, Retire & Refire encourages readers to stop waiting and start living life on their own terms.

A perfectly rational part of me is driven to stand on every summit in Wainwright’s list of his favourite 214 Lakeland fells. I wish I could tell you why. I don’t collect stamps. I enjoy birdwatching, but I’m not compelled to seek out every rare species, nor do I feel the need to run every parkrun from A to Z. But when it comes to mountain tops, I do like to tick them off. I don’t use the term myself, but I’m clearly a peak bagger.
