Black MH. Foreword by Geoffrey Cass. M. H.
CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY PRESS 1584-1984.
Cambridge: Cambridge University Press 1984. 343 pp 9 1/4" H. B&w illustrations. "In 1984 the Press celebrates four hundred years of continuous printing and publishing and this history gives a readable and not-too-formal introduction to that unique record. It is the story of the development of the printing and publishing arm of the University of Cambridge from the medieval system of resident stationers who dealt in manuscripts to the present large printing and publishing house which produces computer software and audio cassette tapes as well as books mostly now computer-set. The narrative is given its proper setting in the development of the University which has inevitably determined the history of the Press itself; in the history of the book trade as a whole; and in the intellectual and political history of England which has at times affected the fortunes of the Press. There are anecdotes about powerful personalities from Richard Bentley to Stanley Morison which give colour and life to the sober black-and-white history of printing and publishing." Previous owner's name label tipped-in on half-title page very light wrinkling at bottom of spine. Dust jacket has very light wrinkling at top/bottom of spine and flap-folds some light browning on spine small ghost sticker mark on rear flap. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/Very Good.
