Annals of Parisian typography : containing an account of the earliest typographical establishments of Paris; and notices and illustrations of the most remarkable productions of the Parisian Gothic press; compiled principally to shew its general character; and its particular influence upon the early English press
A bibliographical survey of the early Paris presses by William Parr Greswell, printed in London in 1818 for antiquarian collectors and students of English printing history.
