"once the most widely printed book in English apart from the Bible" I've heard this distinction for so many books now, there must be a list somewhere.

"once the most widely printed book in English apart from the Bible"
I've heard this distinction for so many books now, there must be a list somewhere.
- mallomarmeasle 8y agoI'd love to see that list as well. I imagine that in different times and places that this factoid has been true for a number of books. I read the same thing, and find it very believable, about "Dr. Chase's Recipes" (https://www.ebay.com/bhp/dr-chase https://www.ebay.com/bhp/dr-chase). I tend to see copies of it more commonly than Walton's book in used book stores in the US.
