abstract = "Nineteenth Century Literary Society is drawn from archive of the House of John Murray publishing company, held by the National Library of Scotland. The family-run firm, with Scottish roots, spanned seven generations and flourished in London from 1768 until 2002. John Murray is especially
remarkable for publishing seminal English-language works of the 19th century, including those by Charles Darwin, David Livingstone, Charles Lyell, and Samuel Smiles, the father of self-help. The largest collection of Lord Byrons private writings and manuscripts, assembled by the publisher,
form a large part of the resource. Women writers feature prominently in the John Murrays collection, including Jane Austen, Isabella Bird, Elizabeth Eastlake, and Caroline Lamb.",
