From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Review and Herald Publishing Association is one of two major Seventh-day Adventist publishing houses in North America and is the oldest institution of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.

[edit] History
The roots of the Review and Herald Publishing Association go back to 1849 when James White produced The Present Truth and in 1850 The Advent Review. From there the publication house grew and moved to Battle Creek, Michigan.
A major fire on December 12, 1902 destroyed the offices. The headquarters was then moved to Takoma Park, Maryland. In 1983 the organization moved to Hagerstown, Maryland onto a 127 acre campus and employs approximately 200 people.
