Lydia Phillips and Mathew Carey

Paul J. Rich, George Mason University

Abstract

Mathew Carey was an important Philadelphia publisher in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Original work by myself and students produced some interesting evidence of his efforts to smuggle books into Mexico. This has been extended by investigations at the National Heritage Museum in Lexington, Massachusetts.
