PRINTING PLACES: LOCATIONS OF BOOK PRODUCTION & DISTRIBUTION SINCE 1500
Hinks, John and Catherine Armstrong (editors)
This seventh Print Networks volume is a collection of essays presented at the 2002 Conference on the History of the Book Trade. The theme reinforces the importance of studying specific local factors alongside the wider picture of printing history. As with the other volumes in the Print Networks series, the scope of these scholarly essays is wide-ranging: the book trade in Britain, including links with the former colonies, in early modern and modern times. This collection of essays clearly reflects the book-trade history and is a lively engagement with other historical approaches: cultural, social, economic and intellectual. Edited by John Hinks and Catherine Armstrong to noted scholars in this field. Co-published with the British Library. Available in the UK from The British Library.
