Charles Belford
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Charles Belford (April 25 1837 – December 19 1880) was a journalist and publisher from County Cork, Ireland.
Belford came to Canada with two younger brothers in 1857 and later they formed Belford Brothers publishing. They took advantage of the Canadian Copyright Act of 1875 to reprint many authors, most notably Mark Twain, when it was legal to do so. The company was successful and eventually was absorbed into the Rand McNally Company after Charles had left.
