Description

Explore a significant moment in publishing history with The Ballantyne-Lockhart Controversy: 1838-1839. This Routledge Revivals edition provides a reprint of three historical tracts that detail the intense dispute between the Ballantyne family and John Gibson Lockhart, the son-in-law of Sir Walter Scott. Lockhart claimed that the Ballantynes were responsible for the financial ruin of Sir Walter Scott, while the Ballantynes denied these accusations. This work offers a deep look into the legal and financial tensions involving one of literature's most famous figures. It serves as a valuable resource for those studying the history of the publishing industry and the relationships between authors and publishers during the 19th century. Written by Stephen Parks, Curator of the Osborn Collection at the Beinecke Library, Yale University, this book brings historical primary sources back to life. It is an essential read for historians, collectors, and anyone interested in the business and financial history of the literary world.
