AFRO-AMERICANA, 1553-1906: A CATALOG OF THE HOLDINGS OF THE LIBRARY COMPANY OF PHILADELPHIA AND THE HISTORICAL SOCIETY OF PENNSYLVANIA.
With an Introduction by Edwin Wolf New Castle, Delaware Oak Knoll Press 2008 8.5 x 11 inches Hardcover 920 pages
Second, expanded edition. During the 1960s, scholars and researchers, moved by African-American civil rights activism, began to re-explore the significance of slavery in the American story and rediscovered the importance of the writings of African Americans. These scholars, looking for sources to promote this new scholarship, taught that works on Africa, the rise of slavery and movements against it, and the writings of African Americans were important to the burgeoning field of African-American studies. In 1969, the Library Company of Philadelphia joined the Historical Society of Pennsylvania to mount a major exhibition of their holdings, entitled Negro History: 1553 - 1906. In 1973, on the heels of that exhibition, the two organizations published their holdings in the still-standard bibliography, Afro-Americana: 1553 - 1906, itemizing over 13,000 printed works and nearly 5,000 manuscript entries. Afro-Americana helped identify the two libraries as major resources for African American studies, helping to solidify African-American history in academic and popular culture. This expanded, second edition by Oak Knoll Press, to include upwards of 2,500 additions since the catalogue's 1973 publication, preserves and extends the legacy of this landmark work.

Alison, Jennifer. DOING SOMETHING FOR AUSTRALIA: GEORGE ROBERTSON AND THE EARLY YEARS OF ANGUS AND ROBERTSON, PUBLISHERS, 1888-1900
Melbourne Bibliographical Society of Australia and New Zealand 2009 6.75 x 9.75 inches hardcover 332 pages
From tentative beginnings in 1888, Angus and Robertson soon hit their stride as publishers with the publication of Banjo Paterson's verses The Man from Snowy River. This book was a phenomenal success, surprising even its publishers. Snowy River was quickly followed by two successful Henry Lawson titles, In the Days When the World was Wide and While the Billy Boils.

From this foundation, Angus and Robertson went on to publish books for the Australian community for the better part of the next hundred years. The powerful force in the early publishing was George Robertson, who devoted himself to the task and who, with the continuing success of the firm's many books, truly believed he was "doing something for Australia."

This book tells the story of how Angus and Robertson operated as a business to achieve their success, which in effect tells the story of George Robertson himself.

Jennifer Alison is a graduate of the University of Sydney and the University of New South Wales. She worked as a librarian at the State Library of New South Wales and the University of Sydney. She has previously written on the Australian book trade, preservation of text, and the Australian private press movement.

Distributed for the Bibliographical Society of Australia and New Zealand. Available in Australia and New Zealand from the publisher.
