NOTES
In this 1894 work a great American publisher casts his eye on how writers, from the dawn of history to the fall of the Roman Empire, got by. He discusses the way in which those who produce books interacted with their public, and the evolution of the idea of literary property and compensation in Greece, Alexandria, and elsewhere
