Biografie

Between 1945 and 1975, Butterworths' books were sold in the United States by other publishers. In 1959, the Chairman and Joint Managing Directors submitted a memorandum to the Board of Butterworths recommending that they establish their own selling and publishing organisation in the US. The following year, Butterworth, Inc. was incorporated, with an office in Washington DC. By 1964, the company was experiencing substantial losses. In 1967 the office of Butterworth, Inc. was amalgamated with Butterworth's office in Toronto. Toronto took over the publishing activities of the former Washington office. The distribution of London books was handled by the Toronto office and by agents in the US.
