Book Description
Welcome to the Printer Club, a gathering of unlikely souls bound by their love for the art of printing. Our story unfolds in a world where the rhythmic click of a dot matrix printer is music to the ears, where ink cartridges are treasured relics, and where a good printer jam can be a source of both frustration and amusement. Meet Arthur, the club's president, a man whose love for vintage technology knows no bounds. He can tell you the history of every printer ever made and could probably assemble one blindfolded (though he'd prefer you didn't ask him to). There's Eleanor, a freelance graphic designer who yearns for a simpler time. She's got a thing for vintage typewriters and can tap out a sonnet faster than you can say "Courier New." Brian, the struggling novelist, finds solace in the precision of laser printers. He believes that a well-formatted document is the key to unlocking the secrets of the universe. And then there's Janice, the retired schoolteacher with a knack for troubleshooting even the most baffling printing issues. If your printer is acting up, Janice is your woman. But their lives are thrown into disarray when Alistair joins the club. Alistair is a man shrouded in mystery. He arrives with a sleek, state-of-the-art printer that seems to have a mind of its own. He boasts of an encyclopedic knowledge of printing technology that makes even Arthur raise an eyebrow. Is Alistair a genuine printing enthusiast, or is he harboring a secret? Join us as we delve into the quirky world of the Printer Club, where every meeting is a comedic adventure, where the line between reality and absurdity blurs, and where the bonds of friendship are forged in the shared passion for the art of printing.

Revolutionary Networks
Author: Joseph M. Adelman
Publisher: Johns Hopkins University Press
ISBN: 1421439905
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
An engrossing and powerful story about the influence of printers, who used their commercial and political connections to directly shape Revolutionary political ideology and mass mobilization. Honorable Mention, St. Louis Mercantile Library Prize, Bibliographical Society of America During the American Revolution, printed material, including newspapers, pamphlets, almanacs, and broadsides, played a crucial role as a forum for public debate. In Revolutionary Networks, Joseph M. Adelman argues that printers—artisans who mingled with the elite but labored in a manual trade—used their commercial and political connections to directly shape Revolutionary political ideology and mass mobilization. Going into the printing offices of colonial America to explore how these documents were produced, Adelman shows how printers balanced their own political beliefs and interests alongside the commercial interests of their businesses, the customs of the printing trade, and the prevailing mood of their communities. Adelman describes how these laborers repackaged oral and manuscript compositions into printed works through which political news and opinion circulated. Drawing on a database of 756 printers active during the Revolutionary era, along with a rich collection of archival and printed sources, Adelman surveys printers' editorial strategies. Moving chronologically through the era of the American Revolution and to the war's aftermath, he details the development of the networks of printers and explains how they contributed to the process of creating first a revolution and then the new nation. By underscoring the important and intertwined roles of commercial and political interests in the development of Revolutionary rhetoric, this book essentially reframes our understanding of the American Revolution. Printers, Adelman argues, played a major role as mediators who determined what rhetoric to amplify and where to circulate it. Offering a unique perspective on the American Revolution and early American print culture, Revolutionary Networks reveals how these men and women managed political upheaval through a commercial lens.

The Only Game
Author: Reginald Hill
Publisher: Open Road Media
ISBN: 150405802X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 364
Book Description
“A gripping thriller with a cunning plot twist” by the award-winning author of the Dalziel and Pascoe mysteries (Mystery Scene Magazine). Best known for his Dalziel and Pascoe novels, which were adapted into a hit BBC series, Reginald Hill proves himself to be a “master of . . . cerebral puzzle mysteries” in his stand-alone thrillers as well—now available as ebooks (The New York Times). When four-year-old Noll is abducted from an Essex kindergarten, his grieving mother, Jane Maguire, sets off alarms for Det. Inspector Dog Cicero. She’s a liar, has a quick-temper, and a dodgy reputation for taking out her frustrations on her little angel. Then Jane makes a startling confession: She murdered Noll and threw his body in the Thames. For the first time since Dog met her, he’s sure of one thing: Whatever Jane was guilty of, she hadn’t killed her son. The question now is, who is she protecting with this grim deception? And if Noll isn’t dead, where is he? Even Dog isn’t prepared for the answers as it leads down a serpentine trail for the truth—and into the heart of a desperate mother with more to lose than she can imagine.

Geographies of the Book
Author: Charles W.J. Withers
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317128982
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 317
Book Description
The geography of the book is as old as the history of the book, though far less thoroughly explored. Yet research has increasingly pointed to the spatial dimensions of book history, to the transformation of texts as they are made and moved from place to place, from authors to readers and within different communities and cultures of reception. Widespread recognition of the significance of place, of the effects of movement over space and of the importance of location to the making and reception of print culture has been a feature of recent book history work, and draws in many instances upon studies within the history of science as well as geography. 'Geographies of the Book' explores the complex relationships between the making of books in certain geographical contexts, the movement of books (epistemologically as well as geographically) and the ways in which they are received.
