This series of studies, by experts in the relevant fields, comprehensively and systematically examines British book production and publishing in the hundred years before the introduction of printing. The terms 'book' and 'publishing' are usually employed in reference to the products of the printing press.

These essays constitute a valuable work of reference for scholars and students in a wide range of disciplines.Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
