Paperback. The invention of Johann Gutenberg - printing by movable type - was a discovery waiting to happen in the fifteenth century. His story is full of paradox: his ambition was to reunite all Christendom, but his invention shattered it; he aimed to make a fortune, but was cruelly denied the fruits of his life's work. This book covers his story. Num Pages: 304 pages, 8 pages colour. BIC Classification: 1D; 3H; HBJD; HBLH; TBX; TDPP. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 197 x 130 x 20.
