Hackett Publishing Company, Inc. is an academic

textbooks, making the company very visible at American colleges and universities
. Their publications are distinguished by their high quality and extensive commentary.

While Hackett titles are generally recognized for their simple covers (consisting of the title and the author on a plain solid color background), more recent editions of classical (particularly Greek and Latin) works have been notable for their anachronistic use of modern photographs as covers. For example, an image of the

D-Day is used with Homer's Iliad. Their issue of the Republic
has for its cover "The Weather Project," photographed by Jens Ziehe.
