Hill House Publishers was founded in 1982 by world-renowned naturalist and lepidopterist Bernard d’Abrera and his wife Lucilla Wyborn d’Abrera. Since then, they have firmly established the Hill House imprint as publishers of fine books and authentic facsimiles of antiquarian books, prints, maps and documents.

Butterflies of the World (1961-2010) by Bernard d’Abrera is the sole modern multi-volume work by a single author/illustrator referencing the true butterflies (Papilionoidea) of the world.

Hill House have produced a series of now world-famous authentic facsimiles of the works of the ornithologistJohn Gould. Following the successful printing trials, Hill House won an exclusive license to publish the facsimiles of Gould''s monographs contained in the British Museum (Natural History) in London, now known as The Natural History Museum. www.nhm.ac.uk.
