==History==
The Caxton Club was founded in 1895 by a group of fifteen bibliophiles to support the publication of fine books in the style of the then-new Arts and Crafts Movement. The club's name honors the fifteenth-century English printer William Caxton.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=History )〕
The Caxton Club flourished until World War I, after which its membership declined. The club was revived, however, and began to hold regular monthly meetings. The club was exclusively for men until 1976 when the first women were elected to membership.〔
The Club published a number of fine editions in partnership with the Lakeside Press of Chicago.〔 , (p. XXXVII )〕
