crl-13805	Kaser, David	The House of Appleton (Book Review)	1982	2	.pdf	application/pdf	1295	65	62	It was in 1825 that Yan- kee merchant Daniel Appleton opened his dry goods store in New York City with more than half of its floor space set aside for the re- tail marketing of books. The saga is told of the many members of the family who guided the firm through the period of its greatest ascendency (between 1850 and 1900), and the circumstances that led to its latter-day transmogrification as a conglom- erate subsidiary issuing books solely in the fields of health and nursing are related.	cache/crl-13805.pdf	txt/crl-13805.txt
