Inhaltsangabe
In 1853, Louis Hachette established France's first railroad bookstore in Paris, and through this endeavor joined two of the 19th century's most significant technological and cultural developments--the modern railroad and mass print culture. Demarco (Georgetown U.) traces the history of Hachette and Company's railroad bookstore network, from its beginnings as a means of distributing a special collection of books to train travelers, to its achievements as France's first national chain bookstore. The text illustrates the development of the publishing industry in 19th-century France and offers insights into the sociocultural and political transformations occurring in the country during that same time period. For scholars and general readers interested in the history of publishing, France, consumer culture and women's studies. Distributed in the U.S. by Associated University Presses.
