About Us

Kailpot Press is an independent book publisher.  Our first book was The Origins of a Parish..  The book has been recently updated and a second edition is now available.  

Peter Rafferty's translations of Jules Laforgue are a towering achievement.  In the words of Dr Valentina Bold, 'This is poets' poetry,  and I thoroughly recommend reading it.’

David Craig's retrospective and personal collection, 'Paradise and Wilderness' was published on 1st August 2019.
