New Castle, Delaware Oak Knoll Press & Library Company of Philadelphia & The British Library 2006 8.5 x 11 inches hardcover, dust jacket 192 pages
Benjamin Franklin, Writer and Printer begins by focusing on Franklin's career as a printer, from his apprenticeship to his retirement in 1748, by which time he had created the largest printing business in colonial America. His success as a printer was based not only on his newspaper and the popular almanacs he published but also on his own writings, first for his brother's press in Boston and then for his own press in Philadelphia. Most of his early writing took the form of compiling and editing, as in the case of the proverbs that he collected from a variety of sources for his Poor Richard's Almanack and reused for The Way to Wealth, his most frequently reprinted work.
Much of what we know about Franklin as a writer and printer comes from his autobiography, the focus of the last part of this book. Left unfinished at his death in 1790, the autobiography was known to the world for nearly eighty years only in translations, fragments, paraphrases, and, in English, from retranslations of a 1791 French translation. The posthumous publishing histories of the autobiography and of The Way to Wealth illuminate the transformation of Benjamin Franklin from a youthful printer into the most famous American writer of the eighteenth century. Co-Published with the Library Company of Philadelphia and The British Library.

See More... Frohnsdorff, Gregory EARLY PRINTING IN SAINT VINCENT: THE ISLAND'S FIRST PRINTERS AND THEIR WORK, WITH A LIST OF SAINT VINCENT IMPRINTS, 1767-1834
Foreword by Donald N. Mott New Castle, Delaware Oak Knoll Press 2009 8.5 x 11 inches hardcover 120 pages
Although academic interest in the Caribbean region's history and culture has increased in recent years, past studies of West Indian printing history have failed to focus on Saint Vincent, resulting in sketchy and inaccurate information regarding printing on the island. Correcting that oversight, this book reveals that printing began in Kingstown as early as 1767, and it traces the island's printing history through 1834, the year slavery was abolished in the British West Indies. Several early printers are identified, including William Smith, Joseph Berrow, James Adams, J. T. Calliard, John Drape, and Thomas LeGall, and details about them and some of their publications are provided. Newspapers and official documents such as acts and proclamations are shown to have been the main products of the island's presses. The book discusses the use of slaves by printers, touches on other race-related matters, and provides insight into an 1830s battle for the right to serve as the island's government printer.

Few early Saint Vincent imprints are known to have survived, but Early Printing in Saint Vincent includes an annotated list of more than 250 items printed in Saint Vincent prior to 1835, thus helping to close a large gap that has existed in West Indian bibliography. The book concludes with examples of Saint Vincent advertisements and an index. Illustrated in black and white.

Gregory Frohnsdorff is a catalogue librarian at the Charleston County Public Library in Charleston, South Carolina. He previously served on the faculty of The Citadel. His prior writings have focused on cataloguing issues and early West Indian libraries.

New Castle, DE Oak Knoll Press 2003 small 4to. cloth, dust jacket 288 pages
First edition. The Golden Cockerel Press, one of the foremost publishers of illustrated books, was the most important and productive of the English private presses during the period of 1920-1960. This notable work is the first extensive study of the press, based on interviews and the Press' widely-scattered archives. Richly illustrated with sixteen pages of color illustrations and over 150 black-and-white illustrations, this work delves into the history of the press and discusses and assesses its important private press books. Closely associated with the revival of wood-engraving, the Golden Cockerel Press books were vehicles for the work of such artists as Robert Gibbings, Eric Gill, David Jones, Agnes Miller Parker, Eric Ravilious, John Buckland-Wright and others. Unlike other fine presses that succumbed to the Depression or closed during the Second World War, Golden Cockerel continued to produce outstanding books. The Press' literary achievement was as significant as its artistic contribution through its publication of original manuscripts by writers such as H.E. Bates, A.E. Coppard and T.E. Lawrence. This work also reveals how the market for fine books was created and sustained, and it provides many insights into other aspects of the British publishing scene. A bibliography of all books printed by the Golden Cockerel Press is included. SALES RIGHTS: Available in North & South America from Oak Knoll Books. Available outside North & South America from The British Library.

Havens, Earle (ed.) THE DR. ELLIOTT & EILEEN HINKES COLLECTION OF RARE BOOKS IN THE HISTORY OF SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY.
Baltimore The Sheridan Libraries, Johns Hopkins University 2011 9.5 x 12 inches paperback 122 pages
First edition. In addition to providing a complete bibliography of the Dr. Elliott and Eileen Hinkes Collection of Rare Books in the History of Scientific Discovery, this beautifully-illustrated volume includes narrative essays that put the books in the collection into their proper historical context.

With well over 250 individual items, the Hinkes Collection encompasses over 500 years of printing history in the West. The collection is remarkable both in its quality and breadth of materials, and is distinguished by its disciplined focus on the true "Eureka!" moments that have permanently transformed our understanding of the natural world since the era of classical antiquity. This collection of rare books was donated to the Sheridan Libraries of Johns Hopkins University in 2010 by the Hinkes family, and appears here for the first time fully described in printed form.

A graduate of Johns Hopkins University's School of Arts and Sciences in 1964, and the School of Medicine in 1967, Dr. Hinkes maintained a private medical practice in oncology and hematology in the Los Angeles area for several decades, while also serving as an Associate Clinical Professor at UCLA.

Dr. Hinkes gathered this rich collection over a period of two decades focusing, in particular, upon the history of astronomy and physics. However, his collecting interests were widespread, including mathematics, the planetary sciences, meteorology, biology, chemistry, optics, and technology.

This volume is illustrated in full color throughout and was beautifully designed by Scott J. Vile at the Ascensius Press.

Distributed for The Sheridan Libraries, Johns Hopkins University.

`t Goy-Houten HES & DE GRAAF 2000 8vo cloth xxv, 291 pages.
The collection of English books printed before 1801 in the University Library of the Vrije Universiteit at Amsterdam is one of the largest collections of such books outside the English-speaking world, and by far the largest in the Netherlands. The collection numbers 5,600 titles and covers all subjects, but is especially concentrated on (reformed) Protestantism in Great Britain, the Netherlands and America, and the exchange of ideas between these countries. The collection of which the existence is practically unknown, contains many rare items from the 16th to the 18th century. It covers the periods of the well-known and widely used bibliographies of English printed books (STC, Wing, and ESTC); in a large number of cases the catalogue entries correct or supplement these bibliographies. The catalogue is aimed both at a general public of bibliographers, literary and book historians working with books from the STC, Wing and ESTC periods, and at researchers in the Netherlands, Great Britain and elsewhere specialized in church history and the manifold historical and cultural relations between the British Isles and the Low Countries.

The infinite variety of people and places touched by the British book trade is the focus of this eighth volume in the Print Networks series. These papers - by established book historians and younger scholars - reflect the complex networks that existed between book trade people in the British Isles and the wider colonial world, focusing on those involved in the creation of the book, from author to agent, publisher to printer, bookseller to reader. The broad chronology covered here allows scholars of book history to observe thematic developments. Topics range from Scotland's earliest printers to late twentieth-century global marketing strategies, also exploring books in and about central America, New Zealand, Australia, Elgin, Northampton, and East Kent, among other diverse locations. These essays demonstrate what the connections between book trade practitioners locally and internationally can tell us about the significance of print. They accomplish this by analyzing the lives of the men and women who created and lived in these fascinating 'worlds of print'. Co-published with The British Library.

Hinks, John and Matthew Day (editors) FROM COMPOSITORS TO COLLECTORS: ESSAYS ON BOOK-TRADE HISTORY
New Castle, Delaware and London Oak Knoll Press and The British Library 2012 6 x 9 inches hardcover, dust jacket 400 pages
The essays in this collection trace texts from their creation and printing through to their publication, dissemination, and collection. In doing so, they show how production processes change texts and how collectors subsequently appropriate them for their own ends. By examining the diverse activities of those involved in both textual creation and collection over a long period, these essays highlight both continuities and changes in the book trade. Taken together, this collection offers considerable new insights into many facets of the book trade, ranging from creation to consumption. This newest addition to the Print Networks series includes nineteen essays from leading book history scholars, including Mariko Nagase, Daniel Cook, Stephen Brown, Brian Hillyard, Catherine Delafield, Rob Allen, Rachel Bower, Iain Beavan, and more. The "compositors" section covers everything from The Mayor of Quinborough, published in 1661, to My Name is Salma, published in 2007. Essays on "collectors" include Dr. James Fraser, Titus Wheatcroft, Sir Walter Scott, the USA Armed Services, and more. The book is illustrated throughout in black and white.
