"The aim of the work is to provide, by approaching a limited selection of wide-ranging sources, a checklist of members of the book and allied trades in the London area which would be… sufficiently comprehensive to serve as a basis for further study and as a much-needed stop-gap for the poorly documented period of the late 18th century." (from the Preface).
