==History== In 1856, Michael Henry Gill, printer for Dublin University, purchased the publishing and bookselling business of James McGlashan, and the company was renamed McGlashan & Gill. In 1875, it was renamed M.H. Gill & Son. In 1968, the company became associated with the London based Macmillan Publishers (founded 1843) and Gill & Macmillan was established. In 2013, the Gill family bought out Macmillan.<ref>{{Cite web| last1 = Flanagan| first1 = Peter| last2 = Spain| first2 = John| title = Publishing house back in Irish hands as Gill family buy out Macmillans| work = Independent.ie| access-date = 2017-10-07| date = 2013-08-15| url = http://www.independent.ie/business/irish/publishing-house-back-in-irish-hands-as-gill-family-buy-out-macmillans-29500715.html}}</ref>
