Founded in September 2001 by Gigi Giannuzzi〔http://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2013/jan/07/gigi-giannuzzi-obituary〕 and based in Fitzrovia London, Trolley Books concentrates on producing documentary photography books. It is "known for its controversial and left-of-centre exhibitions and photography and art books"〔Alex Hawgood, ''The Insider'', 20 June 2008: ()〕 According to the Kraszna-Krausz Book Awards (see the awards section below), Trolley presented "(an) exceptional and extraordinary group of books exploring a range of difficult subject matter… Trolley’s beautifully designed and produced books have a real sense of conviction and purpose that sets them apart."〔Award Ceremony Statement 〕 Trolley Books is the publishing arm of a family that also includes the Trolley Charitable Trust, whose aim is to support long term photographic projects which result in a Trolley publication, and TJ Boulting, the exhibition space on Riding House Street run by directors Gigi Giannuzzi and Hannah Watson. == Publications == Trolley Books have worked closely with, and published the work of, several Magnum Photos photographers including Chien-Chi Chang, Werner Bischof, Carl De Keyzer, Thomas Dworzak, Alex Majoli, Paolo Pellegrin, Ilkka Uimonen, and most notably Philip Jones Griffiths. Major publications include ''Recollections'' and ''Agent Orange'' by Philip Jones Griffiths, ''Homeland'' and ''Purple Hearts: Back from Iraq'' by Nina Berman, ''Kurds – Through The Photographer’s Lens'' by the KHRP and the Delfina Foundation, ''Chernobyl – The Hidden Legacy'' by Pierpaolo Mittica and ''New Londoners – Reflections on Home'' by the charity Photovoice in association with 12 young refugees, living in London. Trolley published the first two books by British photographer Robin Maddock, ''Delta Nigeria: The Rape of Paradise'' by George Osodi, ''The Only House Left Standing'' by Tom Hurndall, ''The Gentlemen of Bacongo'' by Daniele Tamagni and ''A Million Shillings: Escape from Somalia'' by Alixandra Fazzina, which won the Nansen Refugee Award, the first time this was rewarded to a photographer or journalist. The majority of Trolley's publications are categorised as photojournalism, but the company has also produced contemporary art books, for example several works by Nick Waplington including ''Double Dactyl'' (2008), Paul Fryer and Damien Hirst's: ''Don’t Be So…'' (2002) and Laureana Toledo's ''The Limit'' (2009).
