Abstract

Founded in 1917 by Leonard and Virginia Woolf, the Hogarth Press was particularly associated with Virginia Woolf’s novels. These are discussed in terms of their literary significance and influence on the development of the Press. The various other authors published by the Press are also described and its history up to and after the First World War examined. Sales figures for a number of its books and the commercial history of the Hogarth Press are indicated.
