| book description |

This study of the learned book trade of the late Renaissance reveals how many features of todayâ€™s publishing world were in place even then. Beginning in Frankfurt, Maclean surveys the authors, publishers, censors, and sellers who operated in this fraught religious atmosphere and overheated market, and ends with the marketâ€™s decline in the 1620s.
