George Palmer Putnam (1814–1872) was a writer and publisher. They were born in Brunswick.

In context

Wiley & Putnam was founded in 1840 and closed in 1847, after 7 years. Among the 34 other publishing house companies founded in the 1840s we hold, those that closed lasted a median of 64 years, so this one closed earlier than most.
