EDITORS COMMENTS
Thomas Nelson: A Pioneering Publisher in the American Revolutionary Era This evocative portrait captures Thomas Nelson (1780-1861), an influential figure in the annals of American publishing history. Nelson, born in London, England, emigrated to the United States in 1798, settling in New York City. He established his publishing business, Thomas Nelson & Sons, in 1810, which would go on to become one of the most prominent publishing houses in the young nation. Nelson's publishing career began inauspiciously, with the failure of his first venture, the New-York Evening Post. Undeterred, he persevered and found success with the publication of the first American edition of the Bible in 1811, a project that solidified his reputation as a respected and innovative publisher. During the early 19th century, Nelson published a diverse range of works, including textbooks, novels, and political tracts. However, it was his role in the publishing of revolutionary literature that would cement his place in history. Nelson was an ardent supporter of the American Revolution and published numerous works advocating for independence, including Thomas Paine's influential pamphlet, "Common Sense." Nelson's publishing house also played a significant role in the dissemination of information during the War of 1812. His publications kept the American public informed of military developments and helped to galvanize support for the war effort. This portrait, likely taken in the mid-19th century, captures Nelson in the twilight of his career. Despite his advanced age, his piercing gaze and confident posture attest to his unwavering determination and enduring influence on American publishing. Thomas Nelson's legacy as a pioneering publisher in the American Revolutionary era continues to be celebrated and studied by historians and scholars today.
