Description

Explore a previously under-researched era of Scottish literary history with this scholarly volume from Edinburgh University Press. This fourth volume in the series provides an original analysis of the book industry in Scotland between 1880 and 2000. Through a collection of contributions from distinguished authors, readers gain insight into the professionalization of publishing and the technological shifts that shaped the industry. The text examines the scale of production and the economic factors that drove the Scottish book trade during these twelve decades. Beyond simple production, the book looks at the institutional structures that supported the industry, including the role of the state and the library service. It also addresses social and labor aspects, such as industrial relations, union activity, and the role of women in the Scottish book world. This volume serves as a necessary resource for historians and researchers interested in the complex evolution of Scotland's publishing landscape.
