Add to basket8vo, (235x156mm), xxvi,638p. 52 illustration and several graphs. A very good copy in original paperback. This volume covers the interrelating stories of publishing, writing, and reading from the beginning of the colonial period. The themes that run through the volume are the dominance of imported books, chiefly English, the gradual emergence of a competitive book trade and the growth of a literary and learned culture.
