Description

This volume completes the history of Cambridge University Press from the sixteenth century to the late twentieth.

It examines the ways by which the Press launched itself as a London publisher in the 1870s, building up its educational and academic lists.

It charts how interests in America were advanced, how subjects were extended and the Press became an international organisation with authors and customers across the world, while at the same time developing both its printing and its publishing.

The volume explores changes in the printing industry, showing how the Press assumed a leading part in the typographical renaissance of the 1920s and 1930s, and built on this after the Second World War to acquire an international reputation for the quality of its work.

In publishing as in printing, this book analyses both the pitfalls and the successes in a century of change.
