Extracts from the Registers of the Stationers' Company of Works Entered for Publication Etween the Years 1557 and 1570 (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Extracts From the Registers of the Stationers' Company of Works Entered for Publication: Etween the Years 1557 and 1570 <p>The Editor has by no means extracted all that the manuscript in his hands would furnish; but he was not at all sure how much matter of the sort would be acceptable to the reader. Not one of these bal lads has been included in any assemblage, from the days of Deloney and Johnson, (who first collected in small volumes their own productions, or those of others, written for street-vociferators) to our own; so that this part of the work will at least have the merit of novelty and originality.' <p>About the Publisher <p>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
