The ''Cheap Magazine'', subtitled "The Poor Man's Fireside Companion", was a fourpenny Haddington monthly published from 1813 to 1815 by George Miller (1771–1835), an East Lothian printer. As "one of the first attempts to diffuse a pure and useful literature among the less educated portion of Scotland", this effort foreshadowed later publications such as ''Chambers's Edinburgh Journal'' and the ''Penny Magazine''.〔Timperley, Charles Henry, ''A Dictionary of Printers and Printing'', 1839, p. 845〕 Yet a cheap price required a large circulation, and Miller's attempt to sustain a large readership without taking any definite religious position ended in financial failure.〔Altick, Richard D., ''The English Common Reader'', 2nd ed., 1998, p. 320〕 ==References==
