Caw noun
The harsh, raucous and disruptive sound made by birds such as crows and rooks
Caw Press is small, experimental publishing company based in London. Our goal is to disrupt publishing by bringing together scholars and the public in new ways. We are not a scholarly press publishing expensive books written by academics, primarily for academics. Nor are we a trade publisher producing books by academic celebrities and driven by what a literary agent or an editor thinks will sell. Instead, our goal is simple but radical: to produce popular nonfiction by scholars without the middle man. This means our books are lively and informative, beautiful to look at, properly marketed and distributed, under the control of the scholars who write them, and cost no more than a glass of wine (well, a large one).
