by Macmillan & Co.
Founded in London in 1843 by brothers Daniel and Alexander Macmillan, Macmillan & Co. began as a bookselling and publishing business and steadily built a strong reputation on both sides of the Atlantic.
The firm became closely associated with important writers of the 19th and early 20th centuries, including Lewis Carroll, Alfred Lord Tennyson, Thomas Hardy, and Rudyard Kipling. Over time, the Macmillan name expanded into a major international publishing group with deep roots in literature, education, and academic publishing.
Today, Macmillan is remembered not just as a company name on a title page, but as a long-running part of publishing history, connected with generations of influential books and authors.
