Seven Locks Press was founded on the banks of the Potomac River at the historic town of Cabin John, Maryland - on a section of the Potomac known as the "Seven Locks Area." George Washington and Thomas Jefferson once had grand plans to make the Potomac River the central carrier of commerce. The founder of Seven Locks Press was so impressed with the series of locks near Cabin John and what they represented, that he named his publishing company after them.

Seven Locks Press has been publishing unique books on contemporary topics, public affairs, and the critical issues of our times for over twenty-seven years.
