Whittles Publishing
Whittles Publishing was set up by Caithness-based Dr Keith Whittles over 25 years ago and grew to become a tried and trusted publisher with deep connections within Scotland. Now an imprint of Porto Press, those connections have been nurtured and developed.
Our books are richly illustrated and engaging with a particular focus on Scottish subjects, wildlife and nature, history and biography, and travel and adventure. There is something for everyone to discover and enjoy within our large list of titles.
