The publishing house of John Murray was founded in Fleet Street in 1768 and remained a family business over seven generations. Intended both to entertain and inspire, Dear Mr Murray is a collection of some of the best letters from the John Murray Archive and elsewhere. Full of literary history and curiosities from correspondents including Charles Darwin who hoped John Murray would accept for publication On the Origin of Species, Jane Austen who was anxious about printing delays of Emma, Lord Byron upset on discovering that forged letters had been sent in his name, David Livingstone who was furious about editorial interference, John Betjeman who asked for help in responding to his fan mail and Patrick Leigh Fermor who apologised for tardiness in delivering his manuscript, Dear Mr Murray is the perfect treat for book lovers everywhere.

This two-volume account of the life and friendships of the publisher John Murray (1778-1843), told largely through his voluminous correspondence, was published in 1891 by Samuel Smiles (1812-1904), whose Lives of the Engineers, Self-Help, and other works are also reissued in the Cambridge Library Collection. Murray was only fifteen when his father, the founder of the famous firm, died, but after a period of apprenticeship he took sole control of the business, becoming the friend as well as the publisher of a range of the most important writers of the first half of the nineteenth century, in both literature and science. Perhaps his most famous author was Lord Byron, whose memoir of his own life, considered unpublishable, was burned in the fireplace at Murray's office in Albemarle Street, London. Volume 2 describes innovations including the famous travel guides, and ends with an assessment of Murray's publishing career.
