In the middle of the 19th century, William Gamble established modern Kanji letterpress printing at the American Mission Press in Shanghai and contributed greatly to the cultures of China and Japan, but records of him remain obscure. This study will shed light on his life, weaving in those experiences relating to Gamble's distinguished service as a printer. This research was carried out with help of the American Library of Congress, which houses many first-hand materials relating to Gamble. The goal of this research was to close in on the true picture of William Gamble, the founder of modem letterpress printing, as well as to illuminate the history of modern Kanji letterpress printing from its origins through its development.
