‎Spreading The Word: The Distribution Networks Of Print 1550-1850‎

‎St Paul's Bibliographies Winchester / Oak Knoll Press New Castle: 1998. Hardcover no dustjacket as issued. Brand new book. How did printed material in Britain get from producer to reader What were the mechanics of supply by which individuals from varied social backgrounds came into contact with print culture These are hard questions lying at the heart of what is sometimes called the new bibliography. Distribution is a complex line of book trade history because it leads out of the self-contained and familiar area of the printing office and bookshop into the often baffling regions of redistribution and consumption where the evidence is often fragmentary. London with its ever-increasing output in this period of books pamphlets newspapers ballads and ephemera was always the dominant influence on the market. In this volume however the contributors are almost all concerned with aspects of the local trade in different parts of the British Isles and in one essay the trade between London and America via Scotland. They provide a series of detailed investigations into the distribution networks which supplemented those based in the capital and in doing so they give a fresh view of the developing relationship between print and society over three centuries.

‎The Stationers' Company And The Book Trade 1550-1990‎

‎St. Paul's Bibliographies Winchester / Oak Knoll Press New Castle / The British Library London: 1997. Paper-covered boards. Brand new book. For more than 400 years the Stationer's Company has been a focus for the conduct of the print and book trade. Booksellers stationers printers binders other producers and dealers united with a common purpose to protect their trade interests and to exert control in such matters as apprenticeship and the number of master printers. Profitable activities over a long period such as the English Stock and the regulation of the printing almanacs are examples of this role the Company played. The Company also effectively restricted the production and sale of the printed materials which were registered in its Entry Books at Stationers' Hall. In this the Company has appeared to be closely aligned with the interest of the State in regulating and controlling a powerful medium for dissent and subversion. In recent years as the Company's archives have been opened up to researchers and as new evidence has come to light from other sources the relationship of the Stationers' Company to the book trade as a whole has been shown to be more complex than had been previously imagined. Some scholars now emphasize the limitations of the power exercised by the Company over print publication while others have shown that it was very closely linked to political and religious networks especially in the Tudor and Stuart periods. Equally while fundamentally metropolitan in interest and in character it is now clear that the Company played an important role in the regions. Welsh printers for example sought to protect their publications by entering them in the Company's registers. By contrast in 18th-century Scotland a network of booksellers attempted to break free of London regulation as it developed a clandestine trade with Ireland the great source of pirated editions. These are some of the themes in this volume in which the Stationers' Company in all its aspects is shown to be central to any study of book trade history in Britain. Contributors include Ann Saunders Peter Blayney D. F. McKenzie Jean Tsushima Ian Gadd Robin Myers Warren McDougall and Philip Henry Jones.

‎New Castle Delaware and London UK: Oak Knoll Press and The British Library 2007. cloth dust jacket. 6 x 9 inches. cloth dust jacket. 180 pages. First edition. Movements of books both as individual volumes and as collections have sometimes covered long distances across many centuries. Subject to the vagaries of war shipwreck and personal ruin as well as the intervention of the book trade and of collectors the travels of books often have an intricately detailed and compelling story to tell. One of the most active areas of current research in book history is concerned with interpreting the clues from individual copies and piecing together the documentary evidence to provide this narrative. In this volume of the Publishing Pathways series leading specialists in book history consider examples from the sixteenth to the twentieth century to chart some of the paths followed by books through the European network of print. This may focus on the large collections accumulated by Renaissance scholars but may equally involve tracking multiple copies of the same work through the marks of ownership left by unknown readers. Books on the Move represents an important contribution to an understanding of the shifting interactions over time between libraries collectors and the book trade.
