Introduction
Geronimo Glover was a bookseller active in London during the mid-16th century. He was made free of the Stationers' Company in 1559 by Robert Holder and is documented as a bookseller between 1559 and 1568. Glover took on at least two apprentices in bookbinding during the 1560s and was among those fined in 1563 for selling Nostradamus, reflecting the regulatory environment of the London book trade.
