History
Collins was a Scottish printing company founded by a schoolmaster, William Collins, in Glasgow in 1819.
In 1848, when his son Sir William Collins became a partner in the business, they became a publishing company, specialising in religious and educational books. The company was renamed William Collins, Sons & Co. in 1868.
In 1917, Collins started publishing fiction. William Collins, Sons & Co. published all but the first six of Agatha Christie's novels.
In 1989 Collins was taken over by Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation. Joined together with the US publisher Harper & Row, they now trade under the name HarperCollins.
