Bibliography of early American publishers and printers

A typical printing press of the 18th century.

Main article:  Early American publishers and printers

Bibliography of early American publishers and printers is a selection of books, journals and other publications devoted to these topics covering their careers and other activities before, during and just after the American Revolution. Various works that are not primarily devoted to those topics, but whose content devotes itself to them in significant measure, are sometimes included also. Works about Benjamin Franklin, a famous printer and publisher, among other things, are too numerous to list in this bibliography and are generally not included unless they are greatly devoted to his printing career. Single accounts of printers and publishers that occur in encyclopedia articles are neither included here.
