Cassell & Company

Cassell & Company was a British publishing business founded in London in 1848 by John Cassell. It began as a company focused on books and periodicals for a broad readership and later became well known for publishing fiction, children’s books, educational works, and illustrated magazines.

Across the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the firm built a strong reputation in British publishing. Its catalog ranged widely, which helped make the Cassell name familiar to both general readers and families looking for practical, literary, and reference titles.

Because Cassell & Company is a publisher rather than a single person, there is no appropriate author portrait to use here.
