Tuttle Publishing, formerly the Charles E. Tuttle Company, is a publishing company which includes Tuttle, Periplus Editions and Journey Editions. With offices in North Clarendon, Vermont, Singapore, Tokyo, and Jakarta, Tuttle Publishing has become the largest English-language book publishing and distribution company in Asia.
The company was founded in 1948 in Tokyo by Charles Egbert Tuttle (1915-1993) and dedicated to publishing "books to span the East and West". From the early 1950s onward, the company published many books on the Japanese language, arts, and culture, as well as translations of Japanese works into the English language. For many years, its title pages laconically noted company offices in Tokyo and Rutland, Vermont.
Tuttle Publishing publishes The Periplus Series, which is a series of books and maps specifically centered around the countries of Asia and the Pacific. It specializes in maps and travel guides, but also produces some literature and leisure books focussing on Asian and Pacific themes.
