Packard Publishing
Founded in 1977 by Clare and Michael Packard, Packard Publishing Limited (PPL) set out to be a low-overhead publisher and distributor of books and journals aimed at university and professional levels, colleges and secondary schools (mostly at A-level in the UK). The company reflects Michael Packard’s previous fifteen years’ experience in publishing in Canada, the USA and UK, and with printed music in London.
Recent emphasis has been placed on the conservation and management of threatened and vulnerable environments, on invasive species, restoration of damaged landscapes and aspects of the professional design of gardens and landscapes and their history – also critical biographies of influential designers – together with studies of contemporary and historical rural subjects. Languages, particularly French, are also of interest.
