Our Story
Founded in the UK in 2013, Yellowback is inspired by the inexpensive, yellow-covered paperbacks that were a revolution in making books accessible to mass audiences in the nineteenth century.
In the twenty-first century, Yellowback combines editorial expertise with efficient workflows and digital tools. Our solutions offer the best of both worlds, from peer review management for journal portfolios to editing research project outputs.

Yellowback Press
Yellowback Press works with authors and researchers to publish their research in book format, online and in print. In particular, we are excited by opportunities to distil high-quality academic research into more accessible formats. Making research interesting to a wider audience can be challenging when you have been trained in academic writing, yet in-depth research projects offer unrivalled knowledge to readers
Yellowback is proud to have published 1930s London - The Modern City, by Michael John Law.
