Chronologically, the offerings range from the seventeenth to the twentieth centuries as they track the developing trade in England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland. Publishers and readers who spent part of their lives in North America are also featured in several of the chapters.

The social, cultural political and economic significance of these artefacts is highlighted by an in-depth examination of the lives of those men and women who participated in the book trade.
