Description - Behind The Scenes: Publishing About Dickens in Hard Times: The Culture and Politics of Academic Publishing by Robert L Patten
This revelatory and often startling book is the most unusual insider-story about book publishing ever issued. / It pivots on the enormous changes in publishing, its culture and politics over four tumultuous decades since the 1970s. / The book does so in providing a detailed blow-by-blow account of the author's struggles over the eventual publication of his classic and magisterial work Charles Dickens and His Publishers. This was originally issued in 1978 - and reissued in a second revised edition by Oxford University Press in 2017. / "Behind The Scenes" is an essential 'read' for every author faced with the complexities of the modern publishing world.
