To celebrate World Book Day 2021, Adam Matthew Digital invites you to a
webinar exploring book history through the lens of the John Murray
Archive, available online now in the new primary source collection
Nineteenth Century Literary Society. From annotated drafts of Lord
Byron’s most famous poems to correspondence shaping On the Origin of
Species and ledgers recording the success of Jane Austen’s novels, the
John Murray Archive provides an essential insight into the evolution of
some of the defining works of the nineteenth century. We will also share
a guide to Adam Matthew Digital’s resources on book history to all
attendees. This guide will showcase our other essential collections on
book history, ranging from early modern printed books from the
Shakespeare Birthplace Trust in Early Modern England to fanzines and
underground press publications from the Browne Popular Culture Library
at Bowling Green State University in Popular Culture in Britain and
America, 1950-1975.
