Joseph Ames
This four-volume work on the early history of printing, published between 1810 and 1819, was enlarged by Thomas Frognall Dibdin from the previous works of Joseph Ames and William Herbert. The lives of Ames and Herbert are followed by discussions of printers from Caxton to Thomas Hacket in the late 1500s.
Marc Notes: A four-volume work on the early history of printing, based on earlier books, and published between 1810 and 1819. When it was first published, the original author, Joseph Ames, had been dead for 50 years. As the title page explains, his work was considerably augmented by William Herbert and then 'greatly enlarged, with copious notes, and illustrated with appropriate engravings' by Thomas Frognall Dibdin. In this volume the lives of Ames and Herbert are followed by discussions of printers from Caxton onwards.
