About The Printing Press
The first printing press was invented by a German named Johann Gutenberg ("The Printing Press and It's on Literacy"). The first printing press was in the 1450's in Europe ("The Impact of Movable Type Printing Press"). The Printing press led to the birth of a culture that encouraged knowledge (" The diffusion of the Movable Type Printing Press"). Without the printing press Columbus's letters wouldn't have been spread ( Geographical Diffusion of Columbus's First Letter").
