Hillsdale College Press is the imprint of Hillsdale College, an independent, nonsectarian institution of higher learning located in south-central Michigan. The College was founded in 1844 by men and women who proclaimed themselves "grateful to God for the inestimable blessings resulting from the prevalence of civil and religious liberty and intelligent piety in the land," and who believed that "the diffusion of sound learning is essential to the perpetuity of these blessings." The Press publishes books related to history, politics, economics, and culture that contribute to the College's old and noble mission of "pursuing truth and defending liberty."
