Faithful Traditional Catholic Publishing since 1996

The Saint Austin Press was founded above a shop in Southampton in 1996 by a group of young Catholics with the hope and prayer that by bringing back good Catholic titles that were out of print, more souls in the British Isles would discover the deposit of beauty and truth found within the Church.

Our Story

Since our founding in 1996, the Saint Austin Press has been known for its beautifully printed books. We believe that beautiful books are more likely to be read and cherished. This philosophy has always guided our production processes and choices of materials, to produce classic looking beautiful editions that are attractive to read and cherish. The unique joy of owning, holding and reading beautiful printed editions will, we hope, inspire many generations to re-discover the richness and beauty of the Catholic faith and cultural tradition.
