Black powder press | Independent Publishing in Cumbria and the Lake District
We are a fledgling, independent publisher based out of Ambleside, specialising in history, photography and writing. At its heart is the English Lake District. We take our inspiration from the words of John Berger:
Landscapes can be deceptive. Sometimes a landscape seems to be less a setting for the life of its inhabitants than a curtain behind which their struggles, achievements and accidents take place. For those who are behind the curtain, landmarks are no longer only geographic but also biographical and personal.
