__NOTOC__
Carl Schoenhof (c. 1843 – 1911) was a bookseller and publisher in Boston, Massachusetts, in the 19th century. He specialized in foreign books.〔Old book dealer dead: Carl Schoenhof Had Been in Business in Boston for Fifty Years. New York Times, May 29, 1911〕 Born in Carlsruhe, Germany, he attended University of Heidelberg. He moved to the U. States around 1864. Shortly thereafter he worked for Boston publishers DeVries, Ibarra & Co., and took over the business in 1870. His business ventures included Schoenhof & Moeller (c. 1870–1878, with Fanny Moeller), Cupples & Schoenhof (c. 1891), and Schoenhof Book Co. (ca.1890s).〔Publishers' Weekly, June 3, 1911. (Google books )〕
Henry James approved of Schoenhof & Moeller, describing it in 1878 as "a vastly better shop than any of the kind in London."〔Henry James letter to Thomas Sergeant Perry, 1878; quoted in: Virginia Harlow. Thomas Sergeant Perry: a biography. Duke Univ. press, 1950. Cited in: Henry James, Philip Horne. Henry James: a life in letters. Penguin Classics, 2001〕 Around 1889, "Mr. Schoenhof () the general agent for the United States for Hachette & Co.'s (London and Paris) publications for the study of foreign languages ... () for Henry Holt & Co.'s (New York) publications. ... (also sold ) Steiger & Co.'s, Wm. R. Jenkins', Geo. R. Lockwood & Son's, MacMlllan's, Appleton's, Barnes' publications in foreign languages."〔"Carl Schoenhof, Foreign Book Seller and Importer, No.144 Tremont Street." cf. Illustrated Boston, the metropolis of New England, 2nd ed. NY: American publishing and engraving co., 1889〕 Schoenhof's shop was located near the corner of Tremont and Winter Streets: at no.40 Winter St. (1875–1876),〔Ad for Schoenhof & Moeller. Magenta (Cambridge, Mass.), 1875.〕 no.146 Tremont (1880–1881),〔Ad for Carl Schoenhof. Harvard Advocate, 1881〕 no.144 Tremont (1887–1889),〔Boston Almanac. 1889〕 and no.128 Tremont (1902–1911).〔Publishers' Weekly, June 3, 1911.〕 In 1893 he "sold out his interest to two of his employees, who continue() the business under the firm-name of Castor & Co."〔Publishers' Weekly, April 4, 1896. (Google books )〕〔Literary World, Dec. 30, 1893. (Google books )〕
Schoenhof's brother, Jacob Schoenhof, was an authority on economics, and served as U.S. consul to England during the Cleveland administration.〔Death of Jacob Schoenhof. (New York Times ), March 15, 1903〕
