Common Courage Press


Common Courage Press is a book publishing company based in Monroe, Maine.
The company was formed in January 1990, in part by Greg Bates, who also serves as publisher. Bates explained his goal of the company: "by publishing books for social justice, Common Courage Press helps progressive ideas to find a place in our culture. The press provides a platform to spread these ideas to activists and ordinary citizens alike."
Ralph Nader praised Common Courage Press in 1997, proclaiming it "exists because too often the major publishers of books do not have common courage or have convinced themselves that 'courageous' books don't sell."
