From the publisher's description: "Haebler believed that the history of the introduction of printing into the Iberian Penisula had yet to be written, but that the materials existed for doing so. His is an effort to create such a history. Haebler's work is a bibliography of Iberian incunabula and early printed books through 1502. His work begins with an extended historical essay on the evolution of printing in Spain and Portugal, and concludes with a bibliography of issues of the press there. In all 600 books are described, with occasional notes and cross- references to Hain and other standard works." The first edition was published as Bibliographical Society's Illustrated Monograph No IV. As New.
