Im Laufe des 18. Jahrhunderts waren zahlreiche deutschsprachige Buchhändler, Drucker und Verleger im Londoner Buchhandel tätig. Diese Studie geht der Bedeutung des deutschsprachigen Buchhandels in der britischen Hauptstadt nach und zeigt, dass dieser den Londoner Buchhandel und den deutsch-englischen Kulturaustausch stark beeinflusste. Damit leistet die Arbeit einen wichtigen Beitrag zur deutsch-englischen Buchhandelsgeschichte.

Over the course of the 18th century, a large number of German-speaking booksellers, printers, and publishers were active in the London book trade. This study examines the German-language book trade in the English capital and shows that it had a major impact on the London book trade and on cultural exchange between Germany and England. The work makes an important contribution to the history of the German-English book trade.

A century ago, northern Thailand (or Siam as it was then known) was home to small communities of Westerners, many of them British diplomats and foresters (like Reginald Le May and Reginald Campbell) or American missionaries (like Lucy Starling and Mary Lou O’Brien). Though few in number, they left behind a considerable written legacy. The writing is invariably personal and often vivid, describing their hopes and aspirations, the challenges they faced in their work and daily lives, and their attachment to this enchanted land. This book makes a selection of that writing accessible to a wide readership, much of it for the first time. The texts are illustrated by 65 evocative photographs, many of them contemporary.

"What is Bangkok like?" asked an American visitor, rhetorically in 1903. Some answer the question by relying on cliches 'Venice of the east' or 'city of places in temples'. Others insisted that its contrasts and contradictions made an easy description impossible.Bangkok at the turn of the 20th century was a city in transition, mixing as it did east with west and traditions with modernity. Here live the diverse communities which made it what it is today but this collection of writings by a huge variety of visitors to Bangkok captures the city through foreign eyes. In Bangkok is a collection of texts which reflect the foreign experience of the city the foreigners in question being both long-term residence and short-term visitors. It draws on a wide range of sources including travel books, memoirs, novels, short stories, verses, inscriptions, newspaper reports, directories and advertisements. It is richly illustrated with contemporary artwork and photographs.
