'An excellent beginning of an important series. The contributors practice a capacious view of book history, using to advantage a mixture of formats (chapters, case studies, etc.). Anyone interested in the field will benefit from the juxtapositions that occur - for example, between authors and readers.' -- David D. Hall, General Editor, A History of the Book in America 'The publication of this series is a remarkable scholarly event, putting Canadian scholarship at the forefront of a growing international field of study. It is essential reading for the literary and cultural historian of Canada and for book historians everywhere.' -- Bill Bell, General Editor, A History of the Book in Scotland
