Quality Publishing Since 1983 |
Bright Mountain Books was established by Eric and Cynthia Bright in 1983 as an adjunct to their wholesale book distribution business located in Asheville, North Carolina. Now located in Fairview, just east of Asheville, Bright Mountain Books operates primarily as a traditional royalty-based publisher. Submitted manuscripts meeting our publication guidelines receive careful review. Accepted manuscripts are edited, designed, and typeset in-house or by qualified freelance professionals. Actual printing and binding is done at quality book manufacturers in the United States. Our goal is to provide book lovers with attractive, affordable books on a variety of subjects.
Historical Images is one of two imprints of Bright Mountain Books. Reprints of classic works or new manuscripts of historical fiction are published under the Historical Images imprint. In 2007, the second imprint was launched: Ridgetop Books. The authors of these publications subsidize the printing of their books but earn royalties in the traditional manner.
Currently, Bright Mountain Books has nearly forty titles in print, all written by local authors or having subject matter relevant to the region. We are pleased to give visibility to the area’s talented writers and celebrate the history and traditional culture of the Southern Appalachian Mountains. |
