Encyclopedia Britannica was first published in Scotland in 1768, a product of the Enlightenment with its faith in education and reason. By the end of the 19th century, most of its sales were coming from the U.S., where striving, self-made Americans really loved knowledge for all. The feeling of holding an encyclopedia in your hands? It's priceless. Encyclopedias are very old; they've been around for thousands of years.
