Legal Publishing in Antebellum America presents a history of the
law book publishing and distribution industry in the United States.
Part business history, part legal history, part history of
information diffusion, M. H. Hoeflich shows how various
developments in printing and bookbinding, the introduction of
railroads, and the expansion of mail service contributed to the
growth of the industry from an essentially local industry to a
national industry. Furthermore, the book ties the spread of a
particular approach to law, that is, the 'scientific approach',
championed by Northeastern American jurists to the growth of law
publishing and law book selling and shows that the two were
critically intertwined.
