As a leading independent publisher of academic and nonfiction books, meeting high library standards has always been a major focus, and many McFarland books have received awards from the library-oriented (Choice Outstanding Academic Title and ALA Outstanding Reference Work) to the specialized (Hugo, Edgar, Stoker, USCF Chess Book of the Year). McFarland is recognized for noteworthy books about pop culture, sports, military, transportation, body & mind, literature, history and medieval studies, among other topics. We’re located in a beautiful Appalachian mountain town (Jefferson, North Carolina), where we offer about 6000 books in print, operate our own printing facility, and employ 55 people.

Our approval preferences include traditional review media and booksellers. For individuals, we prefer bloggers and consumer reviewers with a strong interest in nonfiction. Reviewers requesting ARCs should include in their reviewer profiles URLs for their sites, blogs, Goodreads pages, etc. If there are no URLs provided, or the URLs lead to inactive pages, we are unlikely to approve.
Our ARCs are created from uncorrected page proofs as PDF files (finished books and epub files won't be available for a few months, usually). They are best viewed using an Adobe digital editions reader on a PC or Mac. On an android or iOS tablet or smartphone, we suggest using the Bluefire reader app. These ARCs can be opened on Kindle devices, but often display with unusual formatting and errors.
