Sutherland House Books

Founded in 2017 by Canadian author and publishing executive Kenneth Whyte, Sutherland House is Toronto-based nonfiction book publishers for global English-language audiences. Sutherland House specializes in narrative works of biography, memoir, history, business, culture, and current affairs. Aiming for high-quality and broad appeal, it will publish eight books in 2019 and the same number in 2020. Furthermore, each volume will be commissioned and edited by Mr. Whyte. All of our publications will bear the unique aesthetic of the Sutherland House brand, and be subjected to rigorous market testing from conception to launch. By maintaining a low overhead, the company is dedicating an unusually high portion of its resources to the promotion and marketing of its titles. Furthermore, all titles will be managed by our continent-wide network of service providers. Our Sutherland Classics series, beginning in 2019 with the republication of Bernard Crick’s definitive Orwell: A Life, is indicative of our commitment to quality non-fiction, and biography in particular. We will reprint two masterpieces of biography, memoir, or character-driven history every year under the Sutherland Classics imprint. When in search of leading nonfiction book publishers in Toronto, look no further than our team at Sutherland House. With submissions open year round, we are excited to read your work.
