The Annual Catalogue (1737) Or, A New and Compleat List of All The New Books, New Editions of Books, Pamphlets, &c.

"The Annual Catalogue" by John Worrall and William Warner is a compilation of literary works published between January 1736 and January 1737. This informative catalogue serves as a comprehensive list of new books, new editions, and pamphlets across various genres including history, law, poetry, and more, making it particularly useful for readers, booksellers, and enthusiasts of literature living outside London. The text addresses the growing need for literature accessibility during the 18th century, emphasizing the diversity of subjects covered in the steadily increasing publications of the time. At the start of the catalogue, the authors outline its purpose, aimed particularly at those who may not regularly have access to newspapers where new publications are advertised. It is structured alphabetically to enhance its utility, with clear indications of the publishers and prices for each listed work. Throughout the opening portion, readers are introduced to an array of titles, underscoring the vibrant literary landscape of that era while demonstrating a commitment to organizing and disseminating knowledge for a broader audience. Each entry hints at the cultural currents and intellectual debates that define the period, making it not just a list, but a snapshot of early 18th-century thought and society.
