Information About

Religious Tract Society




They are also notable for being the publisher of the British Boys' Own Paper {Link without Title} .

The founders were of the same type of Evangelicals who founded the London Missionary Society and the British And Foreign Bible Society , for example David Bogue .

The society started by publishing tracts, but rapidly expanded their work into the production of books and periodicals. Their books were mostly small but did include larger works such as the multi-volume ''Devotional Commentary'' and the massive Analytical Concordance To The Bible of Robert Young .

In 1935 the RTS merged with the Christian Literature Society For India And Africa to form the United Society For Christian Literature (USCL). In 1941, there was a change of imprint to Lutterworth Press for all RTS publications intended for the home market.
