History
The company was founded in 1966 by two former employees of other publishing houses: Robert I. Fitzhenry and Cecil L. Whiteside. It began as a distributor in Canada for American publishers such as Harper & Row and Henry Holt and Company, then started publishing reference works and nonfiction. Their lineup still includes such titles as The Fitzhenry and Whiteside Book of Canadian Facts and Dates. In the 1990s and 2000s, the company bought several other Canadian publishers, including Fifth House, Trifolium Books, Stoddart Kids, Red Deer Press, and Whitecap Books expanding their repertoire to include children's fiction, science fiction, and cookbooks. By 1996, Fitzhenry and Whiteside had retired from the company, which was inherited by the Fitzhenry family.
