Uniformbooks has been edited and published by Colin Sackett since 2011, and after forty titles, as well as ten issues of its quarterly magazine, it has likely ended as a regular programme, or at least lost the momentum it had in the dozen or so years that it was especially active.

The imprint has now adopted a more variable approach, books appearing as and when, both uniform and ‘nonuniform’, with the first three of a new pamphlet series in May 2026.

Uniformpamphlets

“Long live the pamflet…”

It was fifty years ago that I came across a four-page pamphlet titled Cricket in the Writings of James Joyce and was especially struck by how even the narrowest subject might be pursued, developed, and finally published.

In this respect it's true to say that the plain form of the pamphlet has persisted throughout the history of publishing, its flexibility and limited extent perfectly suited to a single concern or to simple gatherings of text and images.

THE—A Concordance by Colin Sackett
The censored content in the first edition of T. E. Lawrence’s The Mint is not conventionally redacted—by substituted asterisks, or emphatic black overprinting—but rather, made absent, and this bibliographical work records an inventory of its silent unprinted nothings.

INCISIONS—A Micro Anthology by Michael Hampton
The methodology used to cull these samples from diverse sources into a coherent bank which examines the art (reprobate art to some), of cutting up or tearing books, is a citational process known as ‘sophistication’.

MKBP—Twenty-four pieces by David Matless
The pieces in MKBP are made of words and phrases appearing sequentially in place entries from Nikolaus Pevsner’s Buckinghamshire, published in the ‘Buildings of England’ series in 1960. A few years later, all of these places would fall within the orbit of the new planned city of Milton Keynes.
