Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from The Old Printer and the Modern Press In 1844 I wrote, and published in my series of 'The Weekly Volume' William Caxton, a Biography. That little work sold as largely as any of the collection. It will not be reprinted, as I have cancelled the stereotype plates. In the present work I have remodelled that biography; rendering it a more compact narrative of the state of knowledge before the invention of printing, of the personal history of the man who brought the invention to England, and of the nature of his efforts to diffuse information amongst his countrymen. This account forms the First Part of this volume. The Second Part embraces a very broad view of the Progress of the Press to our own day, especially in relation to the important subject of Cheap Popular Literature. In treating of the remarkable revolution of our times in the prices of books, I cannot avoid incidentally noticing some of my own labours in that direction. I have done so as slightly as possible; and, I trust, in the impartial spirit of an honest chronicler. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Knight (1791-1873) was an English publisher, editor and author who published and contributed to works such as The Penny Magazine, The Penny Cyclopaedia and The English Cyclopaedia, and he established the Local Government Chronicle. He was the son of a bookseller and printer to whom he was apprenticed, and on completion of his indentures he took up journalism and had an interest in several newspaper speculations. In 1823, together with friends he had made as publisher of The Etonian (1820-21), he started Knight's Quarterly Magazine which lasted for only six issues but made his name as a publisher and author, beginning a career covering over 40 years. As a publisher he brought out many illustrated editions of standard works, including The Pictorial Shakespeare which appeared in parts from 1838-41, and also undertook the series known as Weekly Volumes in which many famous books appeared for the first time, himself contributing a biography of William Caxton to the series. He was the author of several books including an autobiography, and continued to write to the end of his life. This work was first published in 1854 and includes 14 illustrations.

This volume documents how the nineteenth-century British publishing industry responded to and helped shape changes in readership and reading markets in the period. Focusing on broad social, economic and cultural changes, it traces the impact of improvements in transport and communication networks, which dramatically affected the production, distribution and retail of books and periodicals, and the implementation of the Education Acts of 1870 and 1871 which forced publishers to direct their attention to new markets and adopt cheaper publishing formats. The growth of circulating libraries, the revolution in serial and part publication, and the spread of railway bookstalls are among the many topics addressed in this volume which concludes with a section that documents the new pressures of censorship that arose as educational reforms provoked anxieties over the spread of cheap ‘pernicious’ literature.
