Gibson Square specialises in books that are able to contribute to a current debate. Each title is supported by a vigorous marketing campaign to provide a broad platform for the book and its ideas in the booktrade.
Gibson Square is a new publishing company whose launch coincided with the award of the Pulitzer Prize to the controversial biography Hirohito, of the Japanese wartime Emperor, during its publication in Britain.
Commissioned books include the translation of the polemical memoirs by Sergo Beria of his father Lavrenti Beria, Stalin's KGB chief, and the expanded memoirs of Diana Mosley, the Mitford sister who married Oswald Mosley, leader of the British Fascist party. Of To Kill a Priest about the murder of Father Popieluszko, former Solidarnosc leader and Polish President Lech Walesa said 'Everyone who would like to find out how communism was defeated, should read this book.'
