Yet there is another, largely overlooked marvel in the Dutch world of the seventeenth century: books. In this fascinating account, Andrew Pettegree and Arthur der Weduwen show how the Dutch produced many more books than pictures and bought and owned more books per capita than any other part of Europe. Key innovations in marketing, book auctions, and newspaper advertising brought stability to a market where elsewhere publishers faced bankruptcy, and created a population uniquely well-informed and politically engaged. This book tells for the first time the remarkable story of the Dutch conquest of the European book world and shows the true extent to which these pious, prosperous, quarrelsome, and generous people were shaped by what they read. 606 $aPrinting$zNetherlands$y16th century$xHistory 606 $aBooksellers and bookselling$zNetherlands$y16th century$xHistory 606 $aPublishers and publishing$zNetherlands$y17th century$xHistory 607 $aNetherlands$2fast 608 $aHistory.$2fast 615 0$aPrinting$xHistory. 615 0$aBooksellers and bookselling$xHistory. 615 0$aPublishers and publishing$xHistory. 676 $a686.209492 700 $aPettegree$b Andrew$0480973 702 $aWeduwen$b Arthur der 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910814464703321 996 $aThe bookshop of the world$94028105 997 $aUNINA
