Examining the coffee-table book through a book history lens acknowledges their significant contribution to post-war visual culture and illustrated publishing. Focussing on post-war America, Great Britain, and Australia during the “golden age” era of the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s, this history of the coffee-table book takes an interdisciplinary approach to put the coffee-table book in context in regards to materiality, format, printing, status, and genre. 0aEconomics and literature.966350 0aPrinting.966351 0aPublishers and publishing.966352 0aBooksxHistory.966353 0aLiterature, Modernx20th century.96635414aLiterature Business.96635524aPrinting and Publishing.96635624aHistory of the Book.96635724aTwentieth-Century Literature.9663582 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303138901608iPrinted edition:z978303138903008iPrinted edition:z9783031389047 0aNew Directions in Book History,x2634-612596635940uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-38902-3 aZDB-2-LCM aZDB-2-SXL c56353d56353
