It depends upon where it was published, when, the nationality and residence of the author and what copyright formalities were in effect at the time. For example, a book published prior to 1923 in the USA has no US copyright. A book published in the USA by a US author in 1923 with copyright notice and renewal is copyrighted for 95 years. A book published in 1972 without copyright notice never had any copyright. A book written in 1899 but NOT published has copyright until 120 years after creation.
