Though not much is known about Thomas Boreman, he preceded John Newbery as a publisher of children’s books in England. As early as 1730, Boreman was publishing mostly educational children’s books. He also published the “Gigantick Histories” series, which started in 1740. The miniature volumes were perfect for children’s small hands, and they contained lovely pictures. Boreman also chose to include a list of subscribers in each volume, so children got the thrill of seeing their own names in print. Boreman’s next work was Curiosities in the Tower of London, which was illustrated with pictures of animals found in the Tower zoo.
