About
An independent publisher of family books.
Mark Books makes memorial and life story books for families. We're based in Birmingham, UK.
Why we exist
A proper book shouldn't cost thousands.
Most people deserve more than a few lines in a book of remembrance, or a folder of photos on someone's phone. But a ghostwritten biography costs thousands of pounds, and a do-it-yourself photo book leaves all the writing to a family that is already stretched.
We make a properly written, beautifully printed book possible for any family, by doing the writing for you and keeping the process simple.
How we work
Four promises we keep for every book.
Written with you
Every book is built from what the family shares. The more voices, the better the book.
Never invented
We work only from your family's answers. We never add a fact, date or feeling you didn't give us.
Checked by a person
Someone on our team checks every page against your answers, and nothing is printed until you approve the proof.
Private by default
Your book belongs to your family. We never publish it, sell it or use it as an example without your written permission.
