The Borzoi 1925: Being a Sort of Record of Ten Years of Publishing by Alfred A. Knopf is a commemorative volume produced to mark the first decade of the Knopf publishing house, reflecting both the firm’s achievements and its cultivated identity within American literary culture. Designed with the elegance and typographic sophistication that became the company’s hallmark, the book catalogues notable authors, titles, and design innovations that distinguished Knopf’s list between 1915 and 1925. More than a mere anniversary record, The Borzoi 1925 functioned as a statement of Knopf’s philosophy: a commitment to internationalism, high literary standards, and bookmaking as an art form.
