Michael Mirolla, Publisher and Editor-in-Chief
On Monday, April 26th, 1937, the bells of Santa Maria tolled,
warning of the inhumane aerial raid that would reduce the
Spanish city of Guernica into ruins. Men, women, children and
animals were destroyed under the weight of the fiery nationalist
bombs. Picasso immortalized the victims of this terrible moment
in history with his painting Guernica and the image has become
a plea for peace. We named our press Guernica with the hope
that the books we publish will make this world a better place
in which to live and love.
We have published over five hundred titles from around the
world.
