Behind the Scenes : Publishing about Dickens in Hard Times

This revelatory and often startling book is the most unusual insider-story about book publishing ever issued. It pivots on the enormous changes in publishing, its culture and politics over four tumultuous decades since the 1970s.0The book does so in providing a detailed blow-by-blow account of the author's struggles over the eventual publication of his classic and magisterial work "Charles Dickens and His Publishers." This was originally issued in 1978 - and reissued in a second revised edition by Oxford University Press in 2017. "Behind The Scenes" is an essential read for every author faced with the complexities of the modern publishing world. It deals with the many distinct components: authorship, illustration, bibliography, printing, cultural formations, circulation, readership, and use. Valuably [sic], too, it is about the many challenges to overcome. -- Publisher's website.
