Biographical History

Houghton Mifflin Company, publishing house of Boston, Mass.,

From the description of Houghton Mifflin Company records, 1832-1944. (Harvard University). WorldCat record id: 612205133

Houghton Mifflin Company, publishing house of Boston, Massachusetts, traces its roots back to the firm of Ticknor and Fields, the premier "literary" publishing house in the United States during the middle years of the nineteenth century; and to the Riverside Press, Henry Oscar Houghton's printing establishment in Cambridge, Massachusetts. After a series of changes within each firm, Ticknor and Fields and the Riverside Press merged together in 1878 to become Houghton, Osgood, and Company. Two years later, James R. Osgood left the partnership and George Harrison Mifflin and Henry Oscar Houghton formed Houghton, Mifflin, and Company. In 1908, Houghton, Mifflin and Company changed from a partnership to a corporation as the Houghton Mifflin Company. The company became publicly owned in 1967 and was bought by the French conglomerate, Vivendi Universal SA, in 2001. The succession of corporate names in the period covered by this correspondence is: Houghton, Mifflin and Co. (1880-1908); and Houghton Mifflin Company (since 1908).
