Rogue Publisher: The 'Prince of Puffers': The Life and Works of the Publisher Henry Colburn - Hardcover

by John Sutherland (Author), Veronica Melnyk (Author)

This is the first-ever book length study of one of the most important and constantly innovative 19th century book and periodical publishers. The mysterious and often elusive but enormously influential Henry Colburn (c.1784 - 16 August 1855) was the pre-eminent publisher of 'silver-fork' novels, and of many influential new writers.
