The Easton Press, founded in 1975, is renowned for publishing fine quality and masterfully crafted, leather bound books. The volumes are often reissues of historical, canonical and classical literature but the Easton Press also has original and modern sub-genres in its catalogue. Many of its publications use elegant, classic typography and vintage or specially commissioned illustrations: all are beautifully designed with stylish exterior and interior detailing. Its Greatest Books Ever Written series was original planned as 100 volumes but was later extended by a further 25 titles. It was released to subscribers only.
