History
Hodder and Stoughton is a British publishing company within Hachette UK. It was founded by Matthew Henry Hodder (1830-1911) and Thomas Wilberforce Stoughton (1840–1917) in 1868 in London. Hodder & Stoughton published both religious and secular works and they were also the originators of the Teach Yourself line of self-instruction books, which are still published through Hodder Headline's educational division. In 1993, Headline acquired Hodder & Stoughton and, the company became Hodder Headline Ltd. In 2002, Hodder Headline Ltd. acquired John Murray, and in 2004, the company was bought by Hachette Livre. Hodder Headline Ltd. was restructured, and a single Hodder & Stoughton publishing division was created. It publishes a wide range of fiction and non-fiction titles and is renowned for passion, quality, and delivering bestselling books in many different formats.
