Ramble House

Ramble House is a small American publisher founded by Fender Tucker and Jim Weiler in 1999.

The press specializes in reprints of long-neglected and rare crime fiction novels, modern crime fiction, 'weird menace' / 'shudder pulps' - short story collections from rare pulp magazines, scholarly works by noted authors on the crime fiction genre, and a host of other diverse books of a collectible or curious nature.

Ramble House titles were originally handmade by Tucker in small-crafted editions, but the growth in the publisher’s list together with print on demand technology led to the titles being available online now as trade paperback editions.

The press went on to publish new works of scholarship devoted to Harry Stephen Keeler and Edward D. Wood, Jr., as well as titles focusing on the crime fiction genre authored by Anthony Boucher, Francis M. Nevins, and Jon L. Breen.

Other titles have concerned true crime (Bill Johnson’s Satan’s Den Exposed and a collection of contemporary newspaper accounts of the Jack the Ripper murders) and American historical figures (The Amorous Intrigues & Adventures of Aaron Burr and Diary and Journal of John Surratt, Conspirator).
