About this ebook
This invaluable work talks about the early printing process and German inventor, printer, publisher, and goldsmith Johannes Gutenberg in detail. Gutenberg introduced printing to Europe with his mechanical movable-type printing press, starting the Printing Revolution in Europe. It is regarded as a milestone of the second millennium, marking the start of the modern period of human history. It played a vital role in developing the Renaissance, Reformation, Age of Enlightenment, and Scientific Revolution, laying the basis for the modern knowledge-based economy and spreading learning to the general public. It's a must read for anyone curious about how printing was done hundreds of years ago.
