The Joseph Johnson Letterbook is the first scholarly edition of the correspondence of the influential Romantic-era publisher Joseph Johnson (1738-1809). Johnson worked in the British book trade for over four decades, producing thousands of books by writers such as Mary Wollstonecraft, Joseph Priestley, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Maria Edgeworth, and William Wordsworth. His contributions to the book trade ranged across several fields, from science and medical writing, to children's literature, to energized pamphlets on the era's religious and political controversies. His letters will be of interest not only to scholars of Romantic literature, but also historians of the book, scholars of women's literary history, historians of science, and several other fields.
