Ebury

Ebury is the home of non-fiction. We publish the books that bring readers and authors together around shared passions in life: from cookery to creativity, from sport to spirituality, and from the most compelling personal stories to the biggest new ideas.

At the heart of Ebury are our four Hubs – Lifestyle, Entertainment, Self and Smart – and our BBC Books and Ebury Partnerships lists that publish across each. Our Hubs have an expert team of editors, publicists and marketers, working closely with our authors. Investing our boundless energy and collective creativity into every book, we craft the record-breaking, chart-topping, perennial bestsellers that will get you through.
