John Darby (printer)

He was associated with the Whigs and printed many works by Whig authors. These included Andrew Marvell's An Account of the Growth of Popery and Arbitrary Government in 1677-1678 and during the rest of the Exclusion Crisis he helped keep Whig arguments in circulation.[1] Other notable works that came off his press include Algernon Sidney's Discourses Concerning Government and Edmund Ludlow's Memoirs.[2][3]
