Abel Clemence of Rouen: A Sixteenth-Century Secret Press is a book written by George Clutton. The book is a historical account of Abel Clemence, a printer who operated a secret press in Rouen, France during the 16th century. The book chronicles the life and work of Abel Clemence and his associates, who printed and distributed Protestant literature during a time when such materials were banned by the Catholic Church. The book provides insights into the social, political, and religious climate of 16th-century France, and sheds light on the underground printing industry that played a vital role in the spread of Protestant ideas. The author draws on a range of primary sources, including letters, diaries, and historical records, to provide a detailed and engaging account of Abel Clemence and his secret press. The book will appeal to readers interested in French history, the Reformation, and the history of printing and publishing.This Article Is Contained In Vol. XX, No. 2, September 1939 Issue Of The Library, Transactions Of The Bibliographical Society.
