Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Catalogue of the Taylor Collection of Psalm Versions The changes that rapidity of production and rapidity of transport have produced in all departments of social life have been no less potent in the book trade than elsewhere. Till comparatively recent times literature of all kinds was small in bulk, and its dissemination amongst the population outside the large towns was slow in the extreme. Even when the era of publication by subscription had passed and books no longer needed a patron, the country bookseller occupied a position much higher than he does at present, when the business from which he draws his livelihood has largely become stationery and "nick-nacks". In the old days he was not only a purveyor of books but a critic of literature. His clients, often drawn from a wide area, expected him not only to be able to show them the book they wanted - which, if the book was expensive he probably could not do, unless it were a copy ordered by some other client and not yet called for - but also to advise them as to the publications in the department of book lore which interested them. The bookseller himself had read widely and was a storehouse of information for his customers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
