John Berry Alden (1834-1915) was not only an American author but also a pioneering figure in the world of publishing. He is known for his entrepreneurial spirit in making literature more accessible to the masses during the late 19th century. Alden's Handy Atlas of the World showcases his commitment to providing informative and useful content at an affordable price, reflecting his philosophy of disseminating knowledge widely. This atlas, along with other publications, helped to democratize information dissemination at a time when books were considered luxury items for many Americans.

His literary style was characterized by clear, concise writing intended to educate and inform. Alden's impact on the literary world went beyond his own works; he contributed to the growth of American literacy by making books more accessible to the general public, and his influence is still recognized in the history of publishing and education.
