From the Frankfurt book fairs in the sixteenth century to the Farringdon Road barrows in the twentieth fairs and markets have played a crucial role in the circulation of books. Traveling peddlers and itinerant printers have also acted as intermediaries in distributing books beyond the reach of conventional shops and in spreading trade practices. In this volume of the Publishing Pathways Series leading book historians investigate the presence of the book trade in the streets and public spaces of Britain and continental Europe. The essays range across geographical as well as chronological frontiers to follow the movement of books ideas and people.

200795718New 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.

200896678New Castle Delaware and London England: Oak Knoll Press and The British Library 2008. hardcover with dust jacket. 6 x 9 inches. hardcover with dust jacket. 240 pages. The history of music printing and publishing has generally formed a self-contained area of research within the study of book history. Bibliographers and book historians have tended to overlook the trade in printed music partly because the means of production reproducing notation rather than letter forms and of distribution often through the specialist sellers of musical instruments and equipment were themselves distinct. On the other hand musicologists have until recently paid less attention to the commercial aspects of printed music concentrating more on the technicalities of composition and performance. <br /> <br /> The original contributions contained in this newest addition to the Publishing Pathways series map some of the common ground between music and other forms of print exploring the ways in which the organization of production and the process of publication of printed music have developed over time. From the production and sale of missals in Renaissance Spain to the complexities of Gustav Mahlers copyrights in late nineteenth-century Vienna these essays raise issues and demonstrate methods of approach that will be of wider relevance to many areas of book history. How composers and publishers worked out their respective financial interests is just one of the recurring themes which will strike a chord with those who study the business of print.
