Valentine Simmes - Other Works

Other Works

Best known for his printing of plays, Simmes worked on non-dramatic projects as well; he printed Salve Deus Rex Judaeorum (1611) for the bookseller Richard Bonian — a volume of poems by Emilia Lanyer, it was one of the very rare books by a woman published in that era. For John Clapham's The History of Great Britain (1606), he was both printer and publisher.
