    André Schiffrin
  • Publication Details

    Book, Verso, 2000
  • Description

    Post-war American publishing has been ruthlessly transformed since Andre Schiffrin joined its ranks in 1956. An engaging counterpoint to recent, celebratory memoirs of the industry written by those with more stock options and fewer scruples than Schiffrin, The Business of Books warns of the danger to adventurous, intelligent publishing in the bullring of today’s marketplace.

    John Tebbel
  • Publication Details

    Book, Oxford University Press, 1987
  • Description

    Between Covers goes behind the famous imprints to tell the often surprising story of the men and women who have made up more than two centuries of American book publishing. Tebbel traces the evolution of the industry through a fascinating series of developments: the astonishing rise of paperbacks before the Civil War, book selling through subscription, the great fiction boom of the 1890s, bouts with censorship, the tremendous growth of specialized publishing, and the escalating role of advertising, promotion, and publicity.
