Michael A. Donohue and William Henneberry founded Donohue,
Henneberry and Company in 1879. Initially it was exclusively a
bookbinder but as time went on it did more and more publishing. As with
most of the reprint publishers during this era, a majority of its books
were published as parts of publisher's series. In 1900 Donohue bought
out Henneberry and formed Donohue Brothers. By 1901 the Donohue
Brothers became M. A. Donohue and Company.
