Vine provides the first dedicated account of the literary and intellectual lives of the merchants of 17th-century Britain. Drawing on methods in book history, and presenting a series of examples chosen to survey the range of merchants' literary interests, the book offers a major new account of 'knowledge-making' in the early modern period.
