}}Camphor Press is a British-Taiwanese independent publisher primarily focusing on books about East Asia. The company started as a digital-only publisher^[1] focused on providing a platform for English-language writing about Taiwan,^[2] before moving into print books in 2015. In 2017 Camphor Press acquired the backlist of US press EastBridge,^[3] reissuing those books under the Eastbridge Books imprint. Camphor Press has also acquired the rights to a number of out-of-print titles about Taiwan and the wider region.^[4] According to local media, at the end of 2017 Camphor Press was “dominating the Taiwan English-language book scene”.^[3]
