At Calamo Press, we believe that at this key juncture in our nation’s history, too many important and meaningful voices have been excluded from the conversation. Our goal is to tell the truth in the face of the establishment’s determination to control the narrative.

Like the media and entertainment culture, today’s mainstream publishing industry is overwhelmingly dominated by smugly self-certain progressives, committed to an agenda deeply at odds with the beliefs and values of average Americans. Moreover, even the handful of visible conservative book imprints cherry pick their authors from among the very few with built-in audiences in traditional media. As a result, a range of interesting and innovative thinkers fail to receive anything like the attention they deserve. Most are ignored, while the determined resort to self-publishing.  

Calamo is committed to changing that. In an America where the very ideas on which this nation were founded are under sustained assault, our aim it to enable the full and robust conversation those in the mainstream would shut down. We understand we are in the midst of a fierce war of principles and ideals, and this is a war that must be won if America is to remain the beacon of liberty it has always been.

Calamo and those we publish are on the front line of this fight.

A SOLID AND WELL-CRAFTED BOOK LENDS AUTHORITY AND CREDIBILITY TO ANY ENTERPRISE.

Innovative people are busy people. While most thought-leaders agree that a book is the best way to present a great idea, taking the time to organize and write thousands of words doesn't fit into the lives of most busy people. But if you can devote a dozen hours to your book project, CALAMO can help you develop your idea and carry it the rest of the way to completion. A well-written, beautifully designed book advances your best idea in the best way possible.
