"The History of the Catnach Press" by Charles Hindley is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book delves into the life and contributions of Jemmy Catnach, a prominent printer known for popularizing cheap literature during the early decades of the 19th century in London, particularly in the Seven Dials district. Hindley explores the evolution of the Catnach Press, detailing its output and significance in the realm of street literature and ballads. At the start of the book, the author introduces Jemmy Catnach as a pioneering figure in the realm of accessible literature, highlighting his ability to appeal to a wide audience despite the questionable educational value of the content produced by his press. Hindley discusses the initial publication of earlier works and his efforts to gather information from various sources, including interactions with street ballad singers like Samuel Milnes. These conversations illustrate the vibrant culture of street literature and the cherished role that Catnach and his press played in catering to the literary appetite of the working-class populace of London during that era. The early chapters set the stage for a deeper exploration of Catnach's legacy and the broader historical context of street literature.
