Biteback Publishing is a British publisher based in Hull, and concentrating mainly on political titles. It was incorporated, as a private limited company with share capital, in 2009.[2] It was jointly owned by its managing director Iain Dale[3] and by Michael Ashcroft's Political Holdings Ltd,[4][2] until 2018 when Dale stepped down to focus on his television and radio work.[5] Biteback Publishing has published several books by Ashcroft including Call Me Dave, his 2015 biography of David Cameron.[6]
Other titles include Out in the Army: My Life as a Gay Soldier (2013) by James Wharton,[7] The Left's Jewish Problem (2016) by Dave Rich, and Post-Truth: How Bullshit Conquered the World (2017) by investigative journalist James Ball.[8]
More recently, the company has published Jesse Norman's first novel, The Winding Stair (2023), which won the 2023 Parliamentary Book Award for Nonfiction or Fiction by a Parliamentarian,[9] Ten Years To Save The West by Liz Truss[10] and Andrew Pierce's bestselling[11] memoir Finding Margaret (2024), about his search for his birth mother.[12]
In 2025 Biteback acquired the world rights for How to Launder Money: A Guide for Law Enforcement, Prosecutors, and Policymakers authored by Donald Trump-linked political fundraiser George Cottrell[13] and international investigator Burke Files scheduled for release in February 2026.[14]
Biteback announced they will publish the authorised biography of entrepreneur Denis Lynn, written by Jago Pearson, in 2026.[15]
As of 2014 around 20% of the company's sales are ebooks.[16]
