bio
Martin Morin was a French printer of incunables, active in Rouen between about 1490 and 1518. It has been suggested that he was born in or near Orbec around 1450, and died in Rouen around 1522. He learned the trade in the Rhine region where he was sent by the Rouen family Lallemant together with Pierre Maufer, and then became a printer and bookseller in Rouen. His 1492 Breviarium Saresberiense or Breviarium Sarum, a breviary for Salisbury, is said to be "the first recorded liturgical book printed for the English market". The Incunabula Short Title Catalogue of the British Library lists 34 works. Other works are listed in the Manuel du bibliographe normand: ou, Dictionnaire bibliographique ..., Volume 2 by Édouard Frère. wikipedia
