Two books published by Canon Press were found to contain significant portions of uncited work by other authors and were subsequently retracted and remaindered: Southern Slavery As It Was (1996), co-authored by Doug Wilson and Steve Wilkins[3] and A Justice Primer (2015), co-authored by Doug Wilson and Randy Booth.[4]
As a marketing initiative, Canon Press put up billboards across the United States in 2023 with the words "Christ is Lord" in bold white letters on a black background, along with a URL.[5] The campaign was a promotion for Doug Wilson's book Mere Christendom,[6] which one theology professor said promotes Christian nationalism.[7]
