Arlington House, Inc. (operating as Arlington House Publishers) was an American publishing company that focused on jazz discographies and conservative, anti-communist literature. Established as a Delaware corporation from 1964 until 1988, it maintained offices in New Rochelle, New York City, and later in Westport, Connecticut.

Corporate history

  • In 1968, Arlington House, together with its associated companies Conservative Book Club, Inc. and Nostalgia Book Club, Inc., was purchased by Computer Applications, Inc. for approximately $1.5 million in stock. These organizations continued to function under their current leadership within CAI’s division dedicated to direct mail, graphic arts, and publishing.
  • Following this, Arlington House became part of Starr Broadcasting, which was acquired by Shamrock Broadcasting in 1979. Shamrock subsequently sold Arlington House to Crown Publishing in 1981.
