DESCRIPTION:
Beautifully illustrated study explores every aspect of the American printer and his craft from 1639 to 1800.
"A great Reference Book on Colonial Printing, Printers and the business of printing in the 18th c" according to Benjamin Edes. If you are interested in the printing trade of colonial America then this book is an excellent starting place. It has become a classic among researchers and is often quoted for its reference material. The best book available on all aspects of the trade.. A Boring Topic Put in the Most Boring Way Matthew Flaschen I would recommend any book about colonial printing rather than this book. I originally bought it so I could get information on colonial broadsides but it has no information on them and the information it does have is dull and monotonous. Again, just choose another book
