Dryden Press redirects here but there is no mention of it being acquired.Rgdboer (talk) 21:45, 17 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

I think it's merely an imprint of Harcourt (its business and economics books): [1] Martinevans123 (talk) 22:10, 17 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

Thank you. Your link also shows Saunders College Publishing as an imprint for science and math.Rgdboer (talk) 21:51, 22 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

World Book, Inc.

edit

We say:
"The first-created component of what would eventually become Harcourt was the World Book Company (unrelated to the Chicago-based World Book, Inc. publisher of reference works) ..."

World Book, Inc. is now a little-used (4 articles) redirect to World Book Encyclopedia and that article does not name any "World Book" entity among the succeeding publishers of the maybe-eponymous encyclopedia. --P64 (talk) 02:14, 1 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
