About the Publisher:
Everyman was founded in 1906 by Joseph Dent, a visionary publisher. He promised ‘infinite riches in a little room’.
In the autumn of 2023 Everyman celebrated the printing of the 25th millionth Everyman book, Virginia Woolf’s Orlando, since the 1991 revival of Everyman. For over thirty years since they have printed with the same printers. The paper is cream-wove and acid-free - from which the lignin that yellows pages over time has been removed - comes from an Austrian paper mill that, amazingly, has belonged to only two families since its founding in 1583 (just a hundred years or so after Johannes Gutenberg's invention of moveable type).
