註釋In 1787 William Darton began engraving and printing books especially for children. Over the next 60 years over 1000 books for children and young people were published, and about 50 games and educational aids. A seperate firm of Dartons was begun in 1804 by his eldest son, and using various imprints (but always including the name Darton) they published over 1600 children's books in 65 years. This check-list contains details of the output of these two famous publishers of juvenilia, together with information on later editions, an index of artists and engravers and another of publishers and printers. This work is a source of reference for scholars of the history of the book, particularly in the study of children's books.
