Britannica's Typesetters by Sian Reynolds

This is a depiction of a period in British printing history when women were recruited into the traditionally male preserve of setting text. The book covers the Edinburgh book-printing trade, how the first women entered the Edinburgh case-rooms, unions, and the work process and pay question.

Professor of French at the University of Stirling from 1990-2004. She has published books on both French and Scottish history, and translated works by leading French historians such as Fernand Braudel, as well as detective novels by Fred Vargas. She is a past president of the Association for the
Study of Modern & Contemporary France, and is currently Chair of the Scottish Working People's History Trust.
