The House of Blackwood - Author - Publisher Relations in the Victorian Era
The Scottish publishing firm of William Blackwood & Sons, founded in 1804, was a major force in nineteenth- and early twentieth-century British literary history, publishing a diverse group of important authors -- including George Eliot, John Galt, Thomas de Quincey, Margaret Oliphant, Anthony Trollope, Joseph Conrad, and John Buchan, among many others -- in book form and in its monthly Blackwood's Magazine. In The House of Blackwood, David Finkelstein exposes for the first time the successes and failures of this onetime publishing powerhouse.

In addition, he served as a consultant to Queen Elizabeth, and he advised English explorers on their voyages to North America. Today, his occult activities tend to overshadow his many substantialaccomplishments, but the remarkable scholar was a true example of a "Renaissance Man."
