The Bowyer ledgers, kept by William Bowyer, father and son, between 1710 and 1777, offer vast new information concerning authorship, book production and book distribution in eighteenth-century London. They are among the few surviving from this period and for London, the center of the British book trade. More than 5,000 works by some 1,000 authors were commissioned by some 500 customers, including booksellers, institutions and private gentlemen, and were produced by several hundreds of workmen. Copies were delivered to more than 1,500 persons, members of the trade or representatives of the reading public at large. The ledgers record what happened to the text as it moved through the printing house, noting paper, types, format, corrections, number printed and the like. This edition of the Bowyer ledgers presents the records themselves in photo-facsimile on microfiche, accompanied by a volume of editorial material. The microfiches reproduce the four surviving ledgers and associated papers, prefixed with detailed descriptions of the originals. Distributed for The Bibliographical Society of America.

Brian Howard was expected to become one of the leading authors of his generation, but instead he became a secondary character in the books of others. Marie-Jaqueline Lancaster's magisterial biography makes him at last the protagonist of his own highly entertaining story. Packed with reminiscences and extracts from Howard's letters and writings, this book details the outrageous parties, stunts, and confrontations that were second nature to this ne'er-do-well. Chronicling 30 years of waste and dereliction, Lancaster captures a gay literary life, the 1920s, modernism, or the mystery of failed artistic promise. From austere libraries in Oxford to seedy hotels in Amsterdam to darkened cinemas in Tangiers, Brian Howard (1905-58), lived and died precociously and most importantly as he pleased. 'Brian Howard, Portrait of a Failure' is the next best thing to an invitation to one of his famous parties. Sadly, Howard committed suicide, after the sudden death of his lover. A scarce book. Jacket after John Banting (illustratore).…
