The British publishing house of Hart-Davis, MacGibbon was formed in 1972 by its parent group, Granada. The parent company had acquired the publishing concern of Rupert Hart-Davis in 1963 and the house of MacGibbon & Kee (founded by James MacGibbon and Robert Kee)[1][2] in 1968.

When Granada exited the publishing business in 1983, the imprint was sold to William Collins, Sons of Glasgow.[3]
