Active from the late 18th century, it was founded and operated by Thomas Egerton, an influential publisher known for supporting respected writers of the period. The company specialized in literature, history, travel, politics, biographies, and scholarly works, publishing books in printed editions, as digital formats did not exist at the time.

The publisher is especially remembered for releasing Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice in 1813, a novel that continues to be celebrated by readers worldwide.
