About This Item
Goodspeed's Book Shop occupies an exceptional place among American book dealers of the 20th century. Founded in Boston in 1898 by Charles Eliot Goodspeed (1867-1950) and continuing in business under his son George George Talbot Goodspeed (1902-1997) into the 1990s, the firm issued a variety of catalogues (608), occasional "lists," a regular publication titled the Flying Quill and a monthly publication called This Month at Goodspeed's. During its years of bookselling, Goodspeeds made its reputation by acquiring American literature; the first children's book printed in America was among their purchases. The Goodspeeds were also among the first to recognize the importance of Audubon's natural history prints and to anticipate the growing popularity of genealogy studies.
