Summary Note |
An intimate partnership of three brothers -- Allen, Richard and John Lane -- lay at the heart of Penguin books, the twentieth century's greatest publishing house. In a spirit of daring and creative opposition, the brothers issued quality books on a massive scale and at minuscule prices -- and achieved a revolution in publishing. |
