History

Henry Garrity created the publishing house in 1911 in New York City.

His son Devin Garrity inherited it in 1939.[1] It moved from New York City to Old Greenwich, Connecticut, in 1970.[1]

Devin Garrity was also featured in the ABC television series, Answers for Americans, which aired briefly in the 1953-1954 television season.[2]

Originally known for publication of Irish poetry and books on popular ornithology, Devin-Adair began to focus on anti-Communist, conservative, and libertarian books for the political movement that eventuated in the election of President Ronald Reagan. The principal publishers of such books were Devin-Adair, Caxton Publishers (Idaho), Henry Regnery Company (Chicago), Western Islands (Boston), and Arlington House (Connecticut). Garrity managed to have friends across the broad spectrum of the American right from Human Events and National Review to The Freeman, American Opinion, The Review of the News, and Conservative Digest.[citation needed]
