Tonti Press aims to tell the stories of Arkansas as part of its mission. Travel guides, cookbooks, niche publications about Arkansas - all of these fall within the realm of what Tonti Press plans to cover.
The press is the project of author and journalist Kat Robinson, an Arkansas native with a long career in statewide media. Its first two titles, Another Slice of Arkansas Pie: A Guide to the Best Restaurants, Bakeries, Truck Stops and Food Trucks for Delectable Bites in The Natural State and Arkansas Food: The A to Z of Eating in The Natural State, were both published in 2018. Tonti's hyperlocal emphasis and marketing is primarily devoted to promoting such works inside Arkansas; future efforts will expand this enterprise beyond the borders.

About the logoThe "traveller's hat" or "pilgrim's hat" is a wide brimmed hat meant to keep off the sun. Pilgrims on the Way of St. James often wore these with a scallop shell attached to the underside of the front brim, which they would wear pointed upward. Here, the hat is depicted sans shell.
