Louis Coues Page

Louis Coues Page (1869-1956) was a publisher in Boston, Massachusetts. Born in Zurich to American parents, he attended Harvard College and worked for Boston publishers Estes & Lauriat, 1891-1892. In 1896 he bought the Joseph Knight Company and renamed it L.C. Page & Company; around 1914 it became The Page Company. It issued works of "art, travel, music, belles lettres" and fiction for adults and children. It operated from offices on Beacon Street in Beacon Hill. Authors published by the firm included Bliss Carman, Julia Caroline Dorr, Lucy Maud Montgomery, and Eleanor H. Porter. In 1914 the Page Company acquired Dana Estes & Co.

Around the 1910s Louis and his brother George A. Page were co-owners of the Boston Braves baseball team.

Page married Kate Stearns in 1895.

Farrar, Straus & Cudahy acquired L.C. Page & Co. in 1957; the imprint continued until 1980.
