Royal Museums Greenwich prides itself on creating innovative and intriguing books on our core subject areas, exploring stories about the sea, ships, time and the stars.
From gripping tales of adventure on the high seas to the most profound mysteries of the universe, little-known histories to exquisite art, our publishing programme will inspire and delight, whatever your interest.
All profits from publishing are returned to the Museum to help fund research, exhibitions and acquisitions. All our books are sold in our museum shops, online and in all good bookshops.
