Four Seas Company
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Four Seas Company was a bookstore and small-press publisher in Boston, Massachusetts.[1] It is remembered today mostly for its publication of the early work of major modernist writers such as William Faulkner,[2] William Carlos Williams, Gertrude Stein,[3] and Yone Noguchi. Four Seas was founded by the young Edmund R. Brown upon his graduation from Harvard College in 1910,[4] and its imprint first appears in 1911. The last book published under the imprint was in 1930, the year the company was absorbed by Bruce Humphries, Inc.[4][5]
