From the dust jacket: "FROM REVOLUTION TO REVOLUTION yields a fascinating and original perspective on the efforts of publishers and the progress of publishing from a common trade to an admired profession. REVOLUTION begins with the effects of the first great 15th-century innovation of printed by movable type to the introduction of electronic publishing in the late 20th century. Publishers and their struggle are graphically described over the intervening centuries in chapters that depict the purposes, activities, and accomplishments of outstanding firms. The 16th century is represented by the great Aldine Press and its revival of classical scholarship in the form of small pocket-sized books. The subversive and underground Pilgrim Press established in Leyden by our Pilgrim Fathers before they boarded the Mayflower is thoughtfully presented. The important debut of British journalism in the 1 7th century is attributed to the work of Butter and Bourne. Other essays explore the public voice acquired by the New Science, ascribed to the publishing activities of John Martyn and the Royal Society. A large part of FROM REVOLUTION TO REVOLUTION is devoted to the publishing scene in America ". First Edition (so stated). Hardcover.
