AN INTRODUCTION TO BIBLIOGRAPHY FOR LITERATURE STUDENTS.
McKerrow, Ronald B.
With a new introduction by David McKitterick.
This book is one of the very few authorities that can be described as essential to anyone interested in the history of printed books in the era of hand printing. Ever since its first publication in 1927 it has been at the head of reading lists and within easy reach of all who study not only literature, but early printed books in general. McKerrow evokes and analyses the manner by which books were printed and authors' texts were thereby brought before the public. Readable, practical, informative and constantly suggestive, McKerrow has inspired generations of work since. In the extensive new introduction David McKitterick, Fellow and Librarian of Trinity College, Cambridge writes: "McKerrow's work, humane, alert to many an unresolved question remains an inspiration - to the beginner and more advanced 'student' alike."
