Book Description Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Can Ed. "Gutenberg has been called the most influential man of the last millennium. He launched a communications revolution - and changed the written word forever. This is his tale, and the story behind his heretical invention." "Around 1400, in the city of Mainz, a man was born whose invention of moveable metal type was to change the written word for ever and alter the course of history itself. Johann Gutenberg died 60 years later, robbed of his business, his printing presses and, so he thought, of his immortality. Reading between the lines of history, Blake Morrison has woven a stunning novel around the few facts known about the life and work of Johann Gensfleisch, aka Gutenberg, master printer, charmer, conman and visionary.
