Everyman's Library

Originally an imprint of J. M. Dent and Company, established 15 February 1906 in London, England. They ceased to publish new titles in the 1970s. In 1991 it was relaunched by a small independent company, David Campbell Publishers, with the support of Random House in the UK and Alfred A. Knopf in the US. In 2002 the control was passed to the US-based Random House, and it's currently an imprint under the Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group, a division of Random House.
