Did William Blackwood and Sons publish any other books such as The Gardner eighteen seventy one?

Answer 1

I've just bought a book published (and presumably authored by) William Blackwood and Sons called French Cookery for English Homes. The date is not published but its first owner, an M Bell, has hand written '1900' in it.

Answer 2

Yes, William Blackwood and Sons were a prominent publishing house in the 19th century known for publishing a wide range of books, journals, and magazines. They also published works by notable authors such as George Eliot, Anthony Trollope, and Margaret Oliphant.
