Merkantilt Biografisk Leksikon

It featured approximately 10,000 short biographical entries for Norwegian businesspeople, and was edited by Einar Hoffstad (1894–1959). It was printed by Grøndahl & Søns Boktrykkeri. The purpose of the encyclopedia was to "remedy the need to know something about the individuals one is trading with". The entries contain little genealogical information, and the parents of the portrayed businesspeople are not included. Abbreviations are used extensively to save space and money. The editor, Einar Hoffstad, stated in the foreword of the encyclopedia that it was not a parallel to the '' Who's Who'' reference works, although the title could imply that. Hoffstad argued that ''Merkantilt biografisk leksikon'' featured too few and too many names for being a ''Who is Who''†... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
