The Frankfurt Book Fair is the largest international book fair
in the world receiving over 250,000 visitors and book dealers from
over 100 countries. The event is largely focused around trade,
distribution, and selling though the fair has quite a heritage to
it with some 500 years under its belt. Johannes Gutenberg invented
the printing press just outside of Frankfurt in the town of Mainz,
and the first fair was held by local publishers shortly
afterwards.
