By 1500, they were printed and numbered in their millions. The invention of Johann Gutenberg had caused a revolution: printing by movable type. Born in 1400 in Mainz, Germany, Gutenberg struggled against a background of plague and religious upheaval to bring his remarkable invention to light. His story is full of paradoxes: his ambition was to reunite all Christendom, but his invention shattered it; he aimed to make a fortune, but was cruelly denied the fruits of his life's work. Yet history remembers him as a visionary; his discovery marks the beginning of the modern world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eJohn Man is a historian and travel writer whose other titles include \u003ci\u003eAlpha Beta\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eAttila\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003e Genghis Khan\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eThe Great Wall\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 303\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.78 x 7.66 x 5.3 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 01, 2010\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45808102146245,"sku":"9780553819663","price":29.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/6718\/5605\/files\/NzZZR3VPemVabnpGN25heXlUcnFtdz09_5f53c3c7-7867-4879-a227-b55402e0508d.webp?v=1770927691","url":"https:\/\/selloorium.com\/products\/the-gutenberg-revolution-the-story-of-a-genius-and-an-invention-that-changed-the-world-paperback-2","provider":"Selloorium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
