D. C. Heath and Company was an American publishing company specializing in textbooks.[1] It was founded in 1885 in Boston by Edwin Ginn and Daniel Collamore Heath[2] and was later located at 125 Spring Street in Lexington, Massachusetts.[3] From 1966 to 1995 the firm was owned by Raytheon. When Raytheon exited the textbook market, it sold the company to Houghton Mifflin.
