Notes

[1] At least some of their books are written in the English language.

[2] The Chinese and Korean publishers listed is only a small portion. Feel free to add more.

[3] The following are mostly book distributors rather than publishers: Hebsacker Verlag (Germany), Ibuki Trading Post (USA), J.W. & S. Hardy (Australia), Samarkand (USA) and Schaak en Gowinkel het Paard (Netherlands).

The former BGA book shop owner, Gerry Mills, was responsible for several of the publishing companies introducing short labels for their books. For example, Yutopian would have books Y1, Y2 etc. This helped him catalog the books for sale more easily.
