We are a small, family-owned editorial office in the Traslasierras (behind-the-sierras) region of the Cordoba Province in Argentina. Editorial Traslasierras is the passion of David Madden, who moved to Argentina from the United States in 2012 to work on a book. After years of researching the ancient classics and theology and learning Hebrew to write Revelations and Redemption: God’s Plan for History, David married Vanesa Arce, and together we founded the Editorial.
The Traslasierras is famous for its temperate climate, sublime mountain vistas, and picturesque rivulets. It is home to artists, poets, and artisans. Since our founding, we have partnered with local artists and artisans so that we can offer our authors every design service.
In addition to the Editorial, we are passionate about gardening. We invite you to contact us. We would enjoy sharing coffee or maté with you and discussing either gardening or the written word. May God bless you and yours.
David Madden taught European history at The Ohio State University and worked at the University of Chicago Press and as assistant editor for the Journal of the History of the Behavioral Sciences.
