Charter Communications (publisher)
- Charter Communications (publisher)
-
Charter Communications was a publisher active in the 1960s and 1970s. They acquired Ace Books in 1970, but ran out of money the following year. This was partly because they had paid large cash advances for books they believed would become bestsellers, such as "The Anchorman" by Ned Calmer. They were bought by Grosset & Dunlap in 1976.
