See More... Howard-Hill, T.H. THE BRITISH BOOK TRADE, 1475-1890: A BIBLIOGRAPHY.
New Castle, Delaware, and London, England Oak Knoll Press and The British Library 2009 7.5 x 9.75 inches Hardcover, 2 volumes 1,876 pages in 2 volumes, plus index on CD-ROM
This superbly comprehensive and detailed bibliography of the British book trade, the product of research in over three hundred libraries in the UK and USA, supersedes all bibliographies on British authors and authorship, bibliography itself, book collecting, bookbinding, book illustration, bookselling, censorship, copyright, libraries, literacy, papermaking, printing, publishing, textual criticism, and typography until 1890. More than 24,000 items (notably articles in trade journals) are lightly annotated and arranged in classified chronological order to illustrate the social and technological development of British book crafts and industries. Items are minutely indexed on the accompanying CD-ROM. Large areas of the history and practices of the British book trades are opened to scholarly study for the first time. British Book Trade, 1475-1890 belongs in every research library: no-one who works in the fields of British literature, bibliography, or book trade history should neglect this work.

Trevor Howard-Hill is Distinguished Professor of English Emeritus at the University of South Carolina, Columbia, SC. Besides his many publications on Shakespearean texts, Renaissance dramatic manuscripts, and textual scholarship are eight volumes of the Index of British Literary Bibliography (Oxford 1969-99).

Published by Oak Knoll Press and The British Library, in association with The Bibliographical Society and The Bibliographical Society of America.

See More... Hunt, Arnold, Giles Mandelbrote and Alison Shell BOOK TRADE & ITS CUSTOMERS, 1450-1900: HISTORICAL ESSAYS FOR ROBIN MYERS.
Introduction by D.F. McKenzie. Winchester & New Castle, DE St Paul's Bibliographies & Oak Knoll Press 1997 8vo. illustrated, cloth, dust jacket. 334 pages.
Collected here as a homage to Robin Myers, respected book trade historian and editor of the Publishing Pathways Series devoted to studies in book trade and publishing history, these essays uncover the connections between the mechanics of the book trade and their human ends in the learning and transmission of knowledge. They show that the processes and materials involved in the production of books pave the way for larger economic and social issues ranging from business connections, patents, copyrights and their transfer, London's relations with Ireland and America, the Stationers' Company and what transpires when books pass into the hands of customers. This work also includes a memoir of Myers along with a bibliography of her published works.
Here in PART I: THE BOOK TRADE, the contributors discuss a variety of topics: Ann Greening on "A 16th-century stationer and his business connections: the Tottell family documents (1448-1719) at Stationers' Hall," Elisabeth Leedham-Green on "Manasses Vautrollier in Cambridge," David Pearson on "A binding with the arms of the Stationers' Company," Arnold Hunt on "Book trade patents, 1603-1640," Giles Mandelbrote on "Richard Bentley's copies: the ownership of copyrights in the late 17th-century," Michael Harris on "Scratching the surface: engravers, printsellers and the London book trade in the mid-18th century," Scott Mandelbrote on "John Baskett, the Dublin booksellers, and the printing of the Bible, c. 1710-1724," James Tierney on "Dublin-London publishing relations in the 18th-century: the case of George Faulkner," Michael Turner on "A list of the stockholders: the Stationers' Company's English Stock in the 19th-century," and Esther Potter on "The changing role of the trade bookbinder, 1800-1900."
PART II: THE CUSTOMERS include Christine Ferdinand on "Magdalen College and the book trade: the provision of books in Oxford: 1450-1550," Tom Birrell on "The library of Sir Edward Sherburne," Michael Treadwell on "Richard Lapthorne and the London retail book trade, 1683-1697," Alison Shell on "The antiquarian satirized: John Clubbe and the Antiquities of Wheatfield," James Raven on "Gentlemen, pirates and really respectable booksellers: some Charleston customers for Lackington, Allen & Co.," David J. Hall on "Francis Fry, a maker of chocolate and Bibles, and Eiluned Rees on "Art and craft: bookbindings in the National Library of Wales."
