Portfolio
Merrifield Press has had the great privilege to work with enormously talented authors, designers, and editors in the creation of many beautiful and important books.
Below is a select list of books we have had a hand in acquiring or developing over the past twenty-five years. From atlases and illustrated reference to narrative nonfiction and literary anthologies, we have a keen eye for design, typography, and the interaction between text and illustration.
A layperson’s introduction to the economic concepts and principles that undergird a Noble Prize–winning tradition in economics
A digested, student-accessible version of the author’s widely praised, 500-page Upside-Down Constitution
A showcase of Brian Skerry’s photography of the ocean and marine life from the pages of National Geographic magazine; plus, behind the scenes stories of how Brian took his iconic images
A tour of the cosmos that helps readers appreciate the true size and distance of key astronomical objects
An illustrated guide to “what archeology tells us about the Bible,” developed for the direct-mail market
The magnum opus of legendary oceanographer Sylvia Earle, with more than 250 maps and illustrations (and one of my proudest accomplishments)
