In addition, he can be honored as a pioneer in stereotype printing, a Bible publisher, an engraver and illustrator, a creater and publisher of juveniles and toy-books, as well as a popular broadside and print maker. The list could go on. The story of his life and work reveals a man of talent and innovative genius From immigrant origins he rose to singular importance as a printer and publisher in his adopted country. Throughout his 25-year career he exercised a significant influence on the intellectual and cultural life of America, especially within the Pennsylvania German community.
