About Naphtali Press

Naphtali Press was founded in 1987 to publish new editions of classic Presbyterian & Reformed books that are now scarce and out of print. Our focus primarily is the Puritan era, with a specialization in the Scottish Presbyterian authors of that period. However, we have published material from other centuries as well. See our main site for our formally published books (i.e. not print on demand as the titles offered here).
